Book Description:
|
While the military features of historic forts usually receive the most attention from researchers, this volume focuses on the people who met and interacted in these sites. Contributors to British Forts and Their Communities look beyond the defensive architecture, physical landscapes, and armed conflicts to explore the complex social diversity that arose in the outposts of the British Empire.
