Excerpt from Waterloo Lectures: A Study of the Campaign of 1815
Since the publication of the First Edition, some valuable and wholly original details relating chiefly to the crowning event of the campaign - the Battle of Waterloo itself - have reached the Author, who has felt justified in adding them to this Work, although thereby slightly enlarging its original scope.
Some of the numerous kind critics of this work have supposed that these Lectures had been actually delivered before publication. This was not so, how ever. They were not written until the Author had left the Staff College, although they embody the result-s of a study which was carried on there, as it had been begun years before he was connected with that Institution.
