Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a rejoinder by historian Colonel Napier to various critics, among them some who took umbrage at his previous historical work, History of the War in the Peninsula. Whereas that history has been criticized as prejudicial, this work is offered as a vindication of Napierâs military judgements. It is primarily concerned with the details of the Peninsula campaign, and with correcting the historical record as Napier saw it. In this, he gives particular attention to the actions and decisions of specific military leaders, and the broader political context in which they operated. The book is full of historical detail and provides unique insight into the thinking of a leading historian and military expert of the 19th century.
