Description | Wellington landed in the Iberian Peninsula in the summer of 1808. Over the next six years his forces defeated the French occupation forces in a succession of brilliant campaigns as he defended Portugal, liberated Spain and invaded France. His operations helped topple Napoleon in 1814. When Napoleon escaped from Elba and regained power in March 1815, Wellington, without the strength of his Peninsula army, combined an inferior collection of contingents into an effective fighting force. His victory at Waterloo is the British Army's most famous battle. In The National Army Museum's Book of Wellington's Armies, Uffindell skillfully weaves together unpublished acounts from the museum's archive to give a comprehensive picture of this campaign. Drawing on dispatches and letters from military commanders, officers and ordinary soldiers, the book mixes riveting descriptions of battle with stories of endurance and bravery. Uffindell's work brings to life the forgotten voices of Wellington's army. | Release Date | 2004-10-16 | Author | NA NA | Format | Dimensions 16.0x24.0x3.4 cm 324 pages book | Publisher | Palgrave Macmillan UK | Subject(s) | History / Europe / Great Britain / General History / General |
