Condition: New. 2009 N&M Press reprint (original pub 1812). SB. xii+276 pp + MapPublished Price £14.50 Published in 1812, this is an extremely early account of the Peninsular War by Capt. William Stothert, an infantry adjutant with the Third Foot Guards, who was later killed at the Battle of Waterloo. Published in the form of l…etters written home to the authorâs family, Stothertâs narrative relates his entire experiences of the war, from leaving Portsmouth in 1809, to his return three years later. In between he witnesses the assumption of command by Wellington (then Sir Arthur Wellesley); the campaigns in north Portugal; the battle of Talavera; the siege and storming of Ciudad Roderigo; the battle of Busaco; the retreat to the lines of Torres Vedras; the battle of Fuentes dâOnoro; the battle of Albuera; and the siege of Badajoz. Stothert does not hold back in his denunciations of French barbarities against the Spanish civilian population; but he is equally unsparing of praise for the enemyâs bravery in battle. A rare and valuable insight into a savage war.

Red Cloth Gilt. Condition: Very Good. Pp. 240. Singed & dated at top margin of title page: "P. Redmond (?) Barry." Neat annotations & amendments in re ink in a neat hand suggest that this copy was used to revise and update the standing orders of the regiment. The printed name of the Field Marshal who had revised and approved the… amendments was Earl Roberts. The amended name of his successor in pen was French. So in a sense this book contains the standing orders of two field marshals. The original in printed form and the revised one in neat red ink overlaid on the printed version. So one can see the differences between the demands of the teo F.M's. Rare.
