Book Overview: An exciting collection of action-packed battle stories from the Napoleonic Wars, which produced some of the most gripping battles and talented generals of all time. Ten dramatic engagements, from Villiers-en-Crouche in 1794 to the gruelling fight for Hougoumont at Waterloo in 1815, which depict the full horror and courage of war in the best Napoleonic tradition. Brave and brutal, awesome in its dreadful carnage, war in those days meant almost certain death for the ordinary soldier. Haythornthwaite recreates the way it really was.
