Book by Kincaid Captain
"Sinopsis" puede pertenecer a otra edición de este libro.
John Kincaid's memoirs are among the most important records of the Napoleonic Wars and were one of the three principal sources for the Sharpe television series.His presence at famous battles alone would not have made Kincaid's memoirs the classic they have become. This unassuming Scottish officer narrates many minor incidents, often of a humorous or embarrassing nature, which doubtless happened to many soldiers of the period but would otherwise have gone unrecorded. Kincaid awoke on the morning of Waterloo to find that his horse had wandered off, and spent much of his time before the battle trying to find it. Later in the bottle, Kincaid attempted to draw his sabre to ward off attacking French cavalrymen, only to find that the previous night's rain had rusted it fast in its scabbard.The original 1830 edition of Kincaid's memoirs is now extremely rare, and subsequent reprints are themselves collectors' items. This new edition will be well-received by general readers, dedicated Napoleonic buffs, and the many additional Napoleonic enthusiasts created by the Sharpe series.

Hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. [1997] Hardcover and Dustjacket. First published in 1830 (now rare), republished in this edition by Leo Cooper; 176 pages including comprehensive Index. Condition of hardcover: lightly toned on top edge, else Fine. Dustjacket is Very Good Plus. This classic account of life on campaign in the Walcheren, Peninsular and Waterloo campaigns between 1809 and 1815 is reproduced as it was published in 1830, only with a reset in a contemporary style. The author, Captain John Kincaid of the 95th Regiment, later to be honored in recognition of its magnificent service under Wellington as a separate corps within the Army, The Rifle Brigade, brings to life the trials of war. Kincaid focuses on his own experiences and the activities of his beloved regiment and the Light Division, of which the 95th formed so important a part. It is a wonderful, factual memoir of the rigors of four years of hardship and danger. Historical, exciting, and adventurous.
