Item description from seller

2025 N&M reprint Reprint of 1st 1833 ed., X11+435pp After joining up, Surtees soon proved himself to be a steady and competent soldier. Sharing the perils of many a battlefield, he was able to leave immensely valuable eyewitness descriptions of fighting in the Peninsular War and the later stages of the 1812-14 war against America. In peace time Surtees served in Ireland and Nova Scotia, retiring in 1826 to his home in Northumberland, where he wrote these memoirs.Twenty-Five Years in the Rifle Brigade is essential reading for all enthusiasts of the Napoleonic Wars.".This is a remarkable book. his reminiscences. are among the best of many notable writings about the Napoleonic Wars.".This is a celebrated first-hand account of the Peninsular War by a soldier of the 95th Rifles - one of the sources that inspired Bernard Cornwell to create Sharpe.".
