A Desperate Business by Ian Fletcher (9781862274150)

Description - A Desperate Business by Ian Fletcher

A 'desperate business' was how the Duke of Wellington described the Battle of Waterloo following the Allied victory there on 18 June 1815. Here, Ian Fletcher tells the story of the Waterloo Campaign and illustrates just how desperate the battle was, with Wellington's Anglo-Dutch army hanging on to the ridge at Mont St Jean until their Prussian allies arrived to put the seal on one of the most decisive victories in military history.
