Description

'WITH hearts gratefully elate and all due thanks to Heaven for the event, we have this day the supreme happiness of announcing one of the most splendid and comprehensive victories ever obtained even by British valour, or the illustrious Wellington himself. Its consequences we do not hesitate to pronounce completely decisive of the fate of BONAPARTE, whose army has been completely overthrown, in a general and most tremendous battle, with the loss of the whole of his artillery, while coward at heart, always principally regardful of his own personal safety, he himself narrowly effected his escape...' Thus, on the 22nd June 1815, did the Morning Post report Wellington’s stunning victory at Waterloo. The decisive battle of the age, won with the effusion of as much German and Dutch blood as British, brought to a close twenty-three years of almost continuous fighting, and ushered in a period of peace between Europe’s great powers that would last until 1853. This final part of the ‘Napoléon’s Eagles’ trilogy tells the story of those fateful one hundred days in the summer of 1815 as Europe once again crossed swords with ‘the curse and scourge of the human race,’ as the Post disparagingly described Napoléon.
