This book is a follow-up to "Adventures in the Rifle Brigade", whose success spurred the author into publishing a second tome of recollections. His style is witty, pithy and framed with a long and hard fought insight into the warfare of the period. His reminiscences embrace the famed leaders of the period; such as Wellington, Craufurd, Sidney Beckwith et al. as well as the common soldiers that he fought with each day.Highly recommended.SoldiersGreat BritainGenerated by AIMilitary history, Modern19th centuryGenerated by AISoldiersMilitary history, Modern940.27Kincaid Captain Sir John1077763Publishing Pickle Partners1077764MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910163894103321Random Shots From A Rifleman2589219UNINA
