From the author of Talavera, an extensive history of the Battle of Waterloo from the losing side's point of view.

The story of the Battle of Waterlooof the ultimate defeat of Napoleon and the French, the triumph of Wellington, Blücher, and their allied armiesis most often told from the viewpoint of the victors, not the vanquished. Even after 200 years of intensive research and the publication of hundreds of books and articles on the battle, the French perspective and many of the primary French sources are under-represented in the written record. So, it is high time this weakness in the literatureand in our understanding of the battlewas addressed, and that is the purpose of Andrew Field's thought-provoking new study. He has tracked down over ninety first-hand French accounts, many of which have never been previously published in English, and he has combined them with accounts from the other participants in order to create a graphic new narrative of one of the world's decisive battles. Virtually all of the hitherto unpublished testimony provides fascinating new detail on the battle and many of the accounts are vivid, revealing, and exciting.
