Based on new research drawn from unpublished first-hand accounts this volume will provide a comprehensive resource for every aspect of the Battle of Waterloo. The first in a trilogy, this title details the battle of Quatre Bras where an initial 8,000 Allied troops faced 48,000 men of the French Armee du Nord under Marshal Ney. Realising his error, Wellington concentrated his troops at the strategic crossroads of Quatre Bras where they just managed to hold off Ney's attacks.
