History of the War in the Peninsula and in the South of France : From the Year 1807 to the Year 1814

Omtale

Published between 1828 and 1840, Napier's History of the War in the Peninsula was a tremendously influential, if controversial, work. He had access to many of the participants, or their papers, including French ones. The work was both highly praised and criticised. Although biased, it remains an important eyewitness source.
