First edition. 287 pp. Leather spine over patterned cloth boards, leather title labels and with gilt decorated raised bands and compartments. Frontis. Minor wear to extremities. Gift inscription to half title. Bright and clean internally. The letters of Private William Wheeler…of the 51st (now 1st Battalion, Kings own Yorkshire Light Infantry), one of the few eye-witness accounts recorded of the war against Napoleon written at the time it was seen rather than long after. Covering the Walcheren expedition, the main part of the Peninsular War and the impressions of the Waterloo campaign, and briefly of the Greek War of Independence. Observant and at times humorous, the account gives the reader a vivid picture of Napoleonic era warfare, and of the countries in which Wellington's army fought. 8vo.
