The accepted version of events was written more than a century ago and it has remained riddled with misinterpretations and inaccuracies. With the battle's bicentenary approaching, Gareth Glover has referred back to a treasure trove of primary sources: letters from officers and men of the lower ranks, journals of civilians caught up in the fighting, graphic reports from medical staff and army documents detailing court martial proceedings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRumours accepted at the time as fact by the correspondent can both fascinate and frustrate the enthusiast, but there is also a wealth of invaluable, accurate material with frank comment on cowardice, the 'accidental' death of hated officers and the behaviour of the noble British soldier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection of candid letters and journals provides excellent source material for the Napoleonic scholar but they are also a compelling read for anyone with an interest in one of the most important events in European history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Frontline Books,","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47043290792176,"sku":"9781848325401","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781848325401_p0.jpg?v=1763749677","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781848325401","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
