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.

Download or read book Commanding Wellington's Horse Artillery written by Edward Sabine and published by Leonaur Limited. This book was released on 2018-06-07 with total page 412 pages. 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.

Book Synopsis Wellington's Command by : George E. Jaycock
Download or read book Wellington's Command written by George E. Jaycock and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2020-01-19 with total page 229 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A military historian assesses the leadership style of the man who defeated Napoleon. The Duke of Wellington’s victory at the Battle of Waterloo cemented his reputation as a great general, and much subsequent writing on his career has taken an uncritical, sometimes chauvinistic view of his talents. Little has been published that fully pins down the reality of Wellington’s leadership, clearly identifying his weaknesses as well as his strengths. George E. Jaycock, in this perceptive and thought-provoking reassessment, does not aim to undermine Wellington’s achievements, but to provide a more nuanced perspective. He clarifies some simple but fundamental truths regarding his leadership and his performance as a commander. Through an in-depth study of his actions over the war years of 1808 to 1815, the author reassesses Wellington’s effectiveness as a commander, the competence of his subordinates, and the qualities of the troops he led. His study gives a fascinating insight into Wellington’s career and abilities. Wellington’s Command is absorbing reading for both military historians and those with an interest in the Napoleonic period.
Download or read book Wellington written by Rory Muir and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 693 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The leading Wellington historian’s fascinating reassessment of the Iron Duke’s most famous victory and his role in the turbulent politics after Waterloo. For Arthur Wellesley, First Duke of Wellington, his momentous victory over Napoleon was the culminating point of a brilliant military career. Yet Wellington’s achievements were far from over: he commanded the allied army of occupation in France to the end of 1818, returned home to a seat in Lord Liverpool’s cabinet, and became prime minister in 1828. He later served as a senior minister in Peel’s government and remained commander-in-chief of the army for a decade until his death in 1852. In this richly detailed work, the second and concluding volume of Rory Muir’s definitive biography, the author offers a substantial reassessment of Wellington’s significance as a politician and a nuanced view of the private man behind the legend of the selfless hero. Muir presents new insights into Wellington’s determination to keep peace at home and abroad, achieved by maintaining good relations with the Continental powers and resisting radical agitation while granting political equality to the Catholics in Ireland rather than risk civil war. And countering one-dimensional pictures of Wellington as a national hero, Muir paints a portrait of a well-rounded man whose austere demeanor on the public stage belied his entertaining, gossipy, generous, and unpretentious private self. “[An] authoritative and enjoyable conclusion to a two-part biography.” —Lawrence James, Times (London) “Muir conveys the military, political, social and personal sides of Wellington’s career with equal brilliance. This will be the leading work on the subject for decades.” —Andrew Roberts, author of Napoleon and Wellington: The Long Duel
