Reviews

Glozier's study is most impressive in its reconstruction of the Huguenot community. His book has a prosopographical approach and contains a treasury of biographical information, based upon which the author analyses the social and religious background of the soldiers... an important and innovative contribution to Dutch military historiography as well as Huguenot studies and may prove an important incentive to study this topic in more depth. -- H-Albion. This book's particular merit lies in its international scope and its focus on Huguenot officers serving William in the Netherlands and Ireland... Discusses a worthwhile and neglected subject. -- Albion. An important and innovative contribution to Dutch military historiography as well as Huguenot studies and may prove an important incentive to study this topic in more depth. -- H-Albion. The book's correction of previous historians and assemblage of useful data in one place make it a valuable starting point for early-modern French, British, Dutch and military historians. -- 17th-Century Military News.
