Description | The Battle of Talavera was one of the key confrontations of the Peninsular War. In a bloody contest the British and Spanish under Wellesley and Cuesta won a tactical victory over the French forces of Victor and Joseph Bonaparte. The battle was the climax of the offensive launched by Wellesley and his Spanish allies to expel the French from Madrid. Andrew Field's graphic analysis is the first full-length reassessment to be published in recent times. Using documentary records, eyewitness accounts and a painstaking study of the terrain, he reconstructs the action in vivid detail and questions assumptions about the event that have grown up over the last 200 years. He also provides an extensive tour of the battlefield. | Release Date | 2006 | Author | Andrew Field | Format | Dimensions 16.3x24.0x1.9 cm 184 pages book | Publisher | Pen & Sword Military | Subject(s) | History / Europe / General History / Wars & Conflicts / World War I History / Modern / 19th Century History / Europe / Spain Reference / Atlases, Gazetteers & Maps |
