Kershaw, Robert J., 1950-2015
Books, Manuscripts
The battle of Waterloo had all the drama and brutality of a 19th-century bare-knuckle prize fight. It was a vicious fight to the finish between two evenly matched opponents. Robert Kershaw weaves together painstakingly researched eyewitness accounts, diaries and letters to reveal the soldiers' view of this iconic battle: how they felt, what they saw, what they smelt and what they heard enduring this epic confrontation on Sunday 18 June 1815.
