Product description

Review

Gareth Glover does his normal superb job of bringing to life the numerous people, places, and events noted in passing in the text. His short sketches of most of the British officers that are mentioned by Griffiths or Philips help flesh out many of the people they interact with on a daily basis. Fortunately, these sketches are in the form of footnotes instead of endnotes, which is much easier for the reader to read them without losing his place in the text ... This book is an excellent read and is a must-buy for those interested in the British Army or the Peninsular War. --Napoleon Series (online), June 2007

Anyone studying the era in depth will find these writings from participants who wrote home regularly and described both events and their feelings to be most enlightening and essential for capturing the conflicts and sentiments of the times. All will prove top acquisitions for serious, in-depth military reference collections --California Bookwatch
