Charles Oman

Charles William Chadwick Oman was a British military historian of the early 20th century. His reconstructions of medieval battles from fragmentary accounts were groundbreaking, in a style that is a refreshing blend of historical accuracy and narrative tension.
He was born in India in January 1860, the son of a British farmer, and graduated from Oxford University, where he studied with William Stubbs. In 1881 he was elected to a scholarship at All Souls Collegewhere he would remain for the rest of his career.
He became an honorary member of New College in 1936 and received the honorary titles of Doctor of Civil Law (Oxford, 1926) and of Doctor of Law (Edinburgh, 1911, and Cambridge, 1927).
He died in Oxford in June 1946.
