During the Napoleonic Wars, many elite units served their respective masters. However, few had such an enduring yet brief history as the King’s German Legion. Recruited predominantly from Hanover, which had been invaded by the French in 1803, the men of the Legion would face many tough adventures all over Europe before returning to their homeland again.
In this anonymously published memoir, the author recounts his adventures on land and sea, fighting fiercely against the Napoleonic domination of Europe from Denmark to Malta, from the mountains of Portugal to the plains of Spain. The author was present at the capture of Oporto and the battles of Talavera and Fuentes d’Oñoro, and his tales of adventure are described in pacy detail.
Author — Anon
Text taken, whole and complete, from the edition published in 1827, London, by Henry Colburn.
Original Page Count – xxiv and 329 pages.
