Présentation de l'éditeur :
The Peninsular War saw some of the bloodiest fighting of the Napoleonic Wars. Over a period of five years, it is estimated that half a million soldiers and civilians were killed. The battles, however, are less well-known than those of other Napoleonic battles; despite the exposure give to this theater in Bernard Cornwell's "Richard Sharpe" series of novels, the soldiers who fought there have received little public recognition. Now, with the beginnings of the bicentennial commemorations of the Peninsular War, this theater is gaining wider recognition.
The Peninsular War Atlas has been put together over the last decade by Colonel Nick Lipscombe of the British Army. Based in Spain, he is the chairman for the official organization of Peninsular War commemorations, and his thirty years of military service bring a unique perspective to this first complete atlas of the war. In collaboration with Spanish authorities and academics, he has re-evaluated key battles and offers readers new interpretations of the sources available.
Illustrated throughout with 160 high-standard maps, accompanied by a text narrating the entire war, this title is a must for anyone interested in Napoleonic history.

Description du livre Hardcover. Etat : Near fine condition. Oblong Quarto. 384pp. Original brown half-cloth over color-illustrated boards with gilt lettering on cover and spine, housed in matching brown cloth slipcase with gilt lettering, gilt pull-string. Brown endpapers. Gilt ribbon marker. "The Peninsular War was a defining moment in British military history; among the many improvements the the campaign brought was the transformation of British military mapmaking and the flowering of a cartographical department within the newly formed Royal Staff Corps. Under the Duke of Wellington's instructions his Quartermaster General, Colonel George Murray, issued orders for these new cartographic officers to embark on a programme of sketching large parts of the Peninsula. At the end of the war, Murray proposed to the Duke of Wellington a programme of retrospective mapping of the battlefields to illustrate the operations of the British forces. Colonel Lipscombe's work has, at last, concluded (and indeed enhanced) what Colonel Murray set out to achieve nearly tow hundred years ago. This atlas is comprehensive; it covers not just the battles and conflicts of the British and Anglo-Portuguese armies but also of all the major engagements that the Spanish and Portuguese armies fought against the French." (Wellington foreword). Profusely illustrated with fifty-four color maps showing the movements of military forces in during the Peninsular War. Contains various appendices, glossary and bibliography at rear. Minor wear, light rubbing. N° de réf. du vendeur 48151
