WATERLOO: A NEW HISTORY OF
THE BATTLE AND ITS ARMIES
by Gordon Corrigan
Fought on Sunday, 18 June, 1815, by some 220,000 men over
rain-sodden ground in what is now Belgium, the Battle of
Waterloo brought an end to twenty-three years of almost
continual war between revolutionary and later imperial France
and her enemies. A decisive defeat for Napoleon and a hard-won
victory for the Allied armies of the Duke of Wellington and the
Prussians led by the stalwart Blücher, it cleared the way for
Britain to become the dominant world power. This is a clear and
gripping account of the campaign that surveys the wider military
scene before moving on to the actions at Quatre Bras and Ligny
and the final, set-piece confrontation at Waterloo itself.
