About This Item
London: Henry Fisher, 1827. 600 pages. 13 engraved plates. A handsome copy in contemporary straight grain red morocco with gilt dentelles; title label missing; very good otherwise. The attractive plates include a spirited plate of the Grand Old Duke in action during one of his few victories in the Netherlands campaign (Roublaix) and a folding depiction of the funeral procession. (For other books about the Napoleonic Wars please search my stock using the codeword napoleonic.)
