Description

58 photographs, 21 maps, 5 x 8 The best single-volume account of the Peninsular War Companion volume to Jac Wellers Wellington at Waterloo This classic account of Wellingtons tactics and strategy in the Peninsular War is one of the best single-volume works ever written on the epic campaign. Jac Weller covers all the battles with the French in which Wellington was involved. Talavera, Busaco, Salamanca and Vittoria are among the famous battles that he brings to life once more, with the aid of meticulous research, extensive visits to and photographs of the battlefields themselves, and an unwavering ability to cut a clear path through tangled military events. Jac Weller was a distinguished military historian, and an expert on weaponry. Wellington in the Peninsula is part of his famous trilogy on the Duke, together with Wellington in India and Wellington at Waterloo. A collection of his essays, On Wellington, edited by Andrew Uffindell, was recently published by Greenhill.
