About this product
Product Information
The Danish capital of Copenhagen was the site of two major battles during the Napoleonic Wars, but the significance of the fighting there, and the key role the country played in the conflict in northern Europe, has rarely been examined in detail. In this absorbing and original study Gareth Glover focuses on these two principal events, using original source material to describe them from the British and Danish perspectives, and he shows how they fitted into the little-understood politics of this region during this turbulent phase of European history. The first Battle of Copenhagen in 1801 the naval battle celebrated in Britain as one of Nelson's great victories and the second the British army's assault on the city in 1807 in which Wellington played a prominent part were episodes in the continental struggle to resist the power of the French. Gareth Glover describes these events in vivid detail, quoting extensively from the recollections of eyewitnesses on both sides. His account is fascinating reading and an important contribution to the history of the period. AUTHOR: A former Royal Navy officer, Gareth has now published seventy books in his drive to bring a huge quantity of personal memoirs of Napoleonic soldiers lying in the archives into the public domain. 30 illustrations

- i***g (92)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseQuick dispatch and arrival but despite the packaging itself being well wrapped the items were described as new, the pictures made everything look new but one of the items is damaged, the plate is stained and the spoiler card is a complete mess. Everything else was in good condition at least, but still pretty dissapointing.
