We join him in 1810 as he journeys to the Peninsula and follow his experiences through 1811 and the entry into Spain. This volume includes a well documented account of Albuera and much essential material of life on campaign. It concludes with the storming of Badajos. This rare account is available in soft cover and hard back with dust jacket. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket -a credit to your bookshelf.
