Opis

Steevens' reminiscences, is one of the rarer British memoirs from the Napoleonic Wars. He spent his whole military career in the 'Old XX', the 20th Regiment of foot, ultimately commanding it in the later stages of the Peninsular War. During the period, Steevens served in a number of important campaigns including the Helder campaign of 1799, Egypt, Italy (Maida campaign), Corunna, Walcheren and then back to the Peninsula. There are few officers who can claim such an active military career. This edition is not a facsimilie production but a complete new reprint of the original. I have taken the opportunity of carrying out some editing and adding some maps to aid the reader.
