This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 818 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes over 100 maps of the actions, engagements and battles of the entire Peninsular War. “A full and vivid account of the Peninsula War and the Waterloo campaign as they happened in some 180 letters to his family written by Col. Frazer, commander of the Horse Artillery in both conflicts. The writer of these letters, Colonel Sir Augustus Simon Frazer, K.C.B, was born in September 1776 and a month before his fourteenth birthday he was admitted as a Gentleman Cadet into the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich... Promoted Major in June 1811 he went to the Peninsula in November 1812, and it is from this date that the letters begin. In April 1813 Frazer was appointed to command the Horse Artillery of the army and as such saw action at Salamanca, Osma, Vitoria, St Sebastian, the crossings of the Bidassoa, Nive and Adour. He was severely wounded at the siege of Bayonne on 27 February 1814 but was back for the final battle of Toulouse in April which brought hostilities against the French to a close. When war with France broke out again on Napoleon’s escape from Elba Sir Augustus joined the allied army in Flanders, under the Duke of Wellington, in March 1815 and resumed command of the Horse Artillery, the post he held during the battle of Waterloo. On return to England he was appointed commander HQ RHA, Woolwich until promoted Colonel in January 1825. Frazer was a prolific letter writer and the letters contained in this book were written to his wife, Lady Emma Frazer (whom he married in 1809) and to his wife’s sister and her husband, Major and Mrs Moore. They give a fascinating account of the stirring events of the time. 140 of them were written during the Peninsular campaign and a further 41 during the Waterloo campaign. They describe events literally as they occurred.”-Print ed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The galloping guns in the Peninsular War and the Waterloo campaign Based on the experiences of Wellington's commander of horse artillery, Augustus Simon Frazer, these highly informative letters were written while he was on campaign against Napoleon's forces during the Peninsular War in Spain and the Waterloo Campaign in 1815. Born the son of an officer of engineers in Dunkirk in 1776, Frazer was gazetted as a second lieutenant into the Royal Artillery in 1793. By early 1794 he was campaigning in Flanders under the Duke of York where he was promoted and took part in several engagements including Tournai and Boxtel. By 1799 he had joined the Royal Horse Artillery and promoted again was once more back in the Low Countries. In 1807, then a captain, Frazer joined the ill-fated expedition to Buenos Aires. Although his military service had been thus far in poorly performing campaigns, Frazer had become a skilful commander of artillery and so in 1811, he joined the army under Wellington in the Iberian peninsula. He served with distinction at Salamanca, Osma, Burgos, Vitoria, San Sebastian, during the Pyrenees engagements and at Bayonne where he was wounded. At the end of the Peninsular War he returned to England a Lieutenant-Colonel. Napoleon's last great gamble for power in 1815 brought Frazer back to the battlefield in Belgium commanding the Royal Horse Artillery. Attached to Wellington's headquarters he saw action at Quatre Bras. During the Battle of Waterloo the horse artillery performed brilliantly in the vicinity of Hougoumont. Frazer's letters offer the reader the immediacy of reportage from a military eyewitness and are an essential component of every library of the warfare of the Napoleonic period. This special Leonaur edition contains illustrations and maps not present in original versions of the text. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket; our hardbacks are cloth bound and feature gold foil lettering on their spines and fabric head and tail bands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The events of Sunday, 18 June, stand as the defining moment of the year 1815, if not of an entire era. The allied victory over Napoleon’s French army at the Battle of Waterloo reshaped governments and boundaries, made or broke fortunes and touched thousands of lives in ways both large and small, and it has been analysed, dissected and refought on paper a hundred times. Perhaps, though, the very best words ever written about that momentous campaign are the first-person accounts recorded as events unfolded. It is these vivid accounts that Kristine Hughes has collected together in order to convey the hopes, fears and aspirations of their authors. They inject the story of the battle with a level of humanity that reclaims it from the realm of legend and restores it to the people who witnessed it. In chronological order her work pieces together a novel view of the battle and events surrounding it as they were experienced by both military men and civilians. The result is a fascinating and varied picture of the individuals involved and the society of the period. Their words make compelling reading.
