Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Dispatches of Field Marshall the Duke of Wellington, Vol. 1: During His Various Campaigns in India, Denmark, Portugal, Spain, the Low, Countries, and France; From 1799 to 1818 The favorable reception of the "General Orders of the Duke of Wellington" in a condensed form, induced the Compiler to request permission to publish, as a companion to them, the whole of his Grace´s Dispatches relating to his various military services and commands. The permission was accorded by the Duke, in terms that excited every exertion to seek for official authorities which might tend to elucidate the personal detail of his Grace´s professional services, contained in his public Dispatches. The victories and successes in the early campaigns of the Duke of Wellington in India, have never been generally known: their importance having been absorbed by the events which were then occurring in Europe, and their celebrity eclipsed by the Duke´s subsequent fame. The Dispatches themselves contain much military information and instruction in great detail. But an elucidation was necessary in order to connect them: and this explanation is offered as an apology for the presumption that might attach to what is not official in the narrative of the Mysore and Marhatta campaigns.
