This is the story of the men who were there. David Howarth has re-created the battle as it appeared to them on the day it was fought-what they saw and heard, the little that they knew of what was happening, and above all, what they felt. Here both in the narrative and the unprecedented collection of sketches, paintings, and drawings, are the heat and noise, the fear and elation, the pain and suistaining hope of glory which was every man's experience that day.

Binding tight and square. DJ is poor with chips and small tears. From private collection, dust cover is in archival mylar. . . . . . . have read 5 books on Waterloo. Howarth's account of the British victory over Napoleon at Waterloo is written from the perspectives of actual individual soldiers (mostly British, but some French) who participated in the battle. Thus, instead of a broad (and boring) overview of the battle, you get to see only the bits and pieces of the battle that the soldiers themselves experienced. At times I wished for more detailed maps, or more information about what was going on elsewhere on the battlefield at the same time, but overall I think the author made the correct choice to focus on the individual soldiers, as his approach results in a very involving, and at times emotionally moving, story. I have now read this book 3 times; it's that good. -- Nebo Jones. Seller Inventory # 82860
