Drawing from over 18 eyewitness testimonies?including letters, memoirs, and battlefield recollections?Howarth reconstructs the events of June 18, 1815, not as a distant military campaign, but as a day lived and endured by soldiers of all ranks. The title echoes the Duke of Wellington's own words, describing the battle as "a near run thing"?a razor's edge victory that could easily have tipped into defeat. Howarth captures this tension with narrative clarity and emotional depth, weaving together perspectives from British, French, and Prussian participants. His storytelling balances strategic analysis with the visceral realities of war: the waiting, the confusion, the hunger, and the horror. Illustrated with maps, black-and-white photographs, and colour plates, the book offers both visual context and literary immediacy. It's not a dry military chronicle, but a compelling retelling that places readers in the mud and smoke of the battlefield. Howarth's prose is accessible yet evocative, making this volume suitable for historians, students, and general readers alike. First published in 1971, A Near Run Thing remains a respected and widely recommended account of Waterloo?often cited in further reading lists and praised for its ability to bring history to life. It stands as a testament to the chaos, courage, and contingency that shaped the fate of Europe in a single day. ________________________________________ INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please Note.
