Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Paris After Waterloo: Notes Taken at the Time and Hitherto Unpublished, Including A; Revised Edition the Tenth of a Visit to Flanders and the Field "A Visit to Flanders and the Field of Waterloo," published alone, in 1815, formed a part only of notes, taken by the author, on his whole sojourn in Belgium and France. Looking over the hitherto unpublished portion, which for thirty-seven years has reposed in a dusty comer, and finding much which he himself had forgotten, but which narrates events and describes scenes which he thinks might be interesting, as they would probably.be new, to his younger countrymen, - especially at the present moment that a recent loss has recalled the public attention to the marvels of days past, - he has ventured to bring it out. The history of Waterloo, no doubt, has been written by many others since his own slight sketch of it appeared. But his being rather a picture than a detailed narrative - true, however, so far as it goes - the readers of the new portion, he thinks, may like to see the old; and he has given it the place it originally held in the journal which he kept at the time.
