About this title

Synopsis

Ned Clinton; Or, The Commissary: Comprising Adventures, And Events During The Peninsular War: With Curious And Original Anecdotes Of Military, And Other Remarkable Characters. In Three Volumes by Alberto Lumbroso. Ned Clinton’s memoirs recount a young commissary’s clerk’s experiences during the Peninsular War era, blending travel, military logistics, intrigue, and personal trials. The text follows his early life, a fateful misadventure on the Isle of Wight, a voyage to Lisbon aboard the Hercules, and subsequent campaigns in Portugal and Spain. Rich with portraits of officers, soldiers, banditti, nuns, priests, and civilians, the narrative interleaves battles, marches, and the day-to-day life of the British army’s commissariat. It offers both historical detail and moral reflection on prudence, loyalty, and the temptations of fortune, emphasizing the human dimensions of wartime service and the quirks of 19th-century military life.
