FROM CORUNNA TO WATERLOO: With the Hussars 1808 to 1815
by Mollo, John
1-204610
Describes the conception, gestation, birth, and adolescence of the first British Regiments of Hussars -- the byproducts of the Prince Regent's passion for military finery and dandyism -- leading on to their full maturity in the grim realities of war in the Iberian Peninsula between 1808 and 1814, first under Moore and then under Wellington, in two widely different campaigns.
Based on contemporary letters, diaries, and reports, Mollo takes the reader into the heart of the Hussar Brigade in peace and war, depicting its many colorful characters with a sure hand and describing every facet of day-to-day life, in barracks and on the battlefield.
