Full title, "The Wheatley Diary - A journal and Sketchbook kept during the Peninsular War and the Waterloo Campaign". This book also includes original sketches by the author which is very unusual. Also uncommon to find a 60 year old book still having its paper dust jacket.
There is something so striking about this kind of work. We are able to touch a period of time and life through the eyes of someone who lived it. This is a really good look at what
it was like to live through a bloody and very in your face type of warfare. Step back and take a look at how they lived and thought during Wellington's Peninsular campaigns. This one is a keeper.
