The first of this trilogy details the battle of Quatre Bras where an initial 8,000 Allied troops faced 48,000 men of the French Armée 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. The battle ended in a tactical stalemate but, unable to link up with Blücher’s Prussians, Wellington retreated back along the road to Brussels to new positions at Waterloo.Featuring extensive photographs, full colour artworks, maps and bird’s-eye-views, this first instalment is not to be missed.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBGenre: HistoryBook Series: CampaignTopic: Military History, Law & PoliticsRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
