Good in dustjacket in protective plastic, highlighting in Notes. On 16 May 1811 a combined British, Portuguese and Spanish force commanded by the British General Beresford met the French army under Soult, at Albuera in Southern Spain. The authors examine the carnage of Albuera in unprecedented detail, and they give an account of the circumstances, and the conflicting allied and French strategies, that gave rise to the confrontation.
