Binding tight and square, pages clean, bright, and unmarked. 1989 Hard Cover. 160 pp. "Drawing on a wide range of source material, the distinguished social historian Victor Neuburg provides a comprehensive and fascinating view of service life, from the viewpoint of those Wellington termed 'the scum of the earth.' The author traces the soldier's career through the years from recruitment to pension, with detailed accounts of barrack life, the relationship between camp followers and soldiers, and the strains and privations of active service.
