Gimenez, J J HerreroTHE PENINSULAR WAR: The Spanish Perspective British historians often relegated Spanish contributions to victory over the Napoleonic French in the Peninsular War to a minor role. Here, a Spanish historian offers a different analysis of Spanish defeats and victories and the logistical and political difficulties faced by the Spaniards. Examines great battles such as Tudela, Ocana, and Bailen as well as sieges such as Zaragoza while also covering the guerrilla warfare in which ordinary citizens took up arms, attacking isolated French outposts and capturing enemy messengers and patrols. As the war progressed, the Spanish armies became strong enough to win several battles, contributing decisively to the defeat of Napoleon in conjunction with the magnificent achievements of Sir Arthur Wellesley and his Anglo-Portuguese army. Translated into English for the first time. Contains 16 mono illustrations.1 vol, 256 pgs 2024 UK, FRONTLINE BOOKS NEW-dj, available late January 2024 ......$55.00 discount: :15% rct ..see our NAPOLEONIC
