Redcoats in the Caribbean

David Lambert joins us in the first instalment of a series looking at life in Caribbean during the Napoleonic era. In this episode we discuss why the British chose to wage war in the Caribbean, the challenges they faced, and why the region mattered so much in the context of the period.
