Reseña del editor

This classic study of the Duke of Wellington, from the struggle against Napoleon to the post-war attempt to build a new Europe, was widely read by Britain's leaders in World War II. Guedalla's excellent account is particularly noted for his coverage of the large number of quips and witticisms made by Wellington during his campaigns.
