Wellington\s Spies
Intelligence was just as important in the Napoleonic Wars as it is today. The Author uses first hand accounts of three of Wellington's most daring and successful Intelligence Officers. Then there was only one way of obtaining it by spies and informers.
One was killed in action and another taken prisoner and after narrowly avoiding summary execution made a dramatic escape. The three men, all of Scottish descent, were very different in character. There is a romantic angle too.Their stories skilfully interwoven against the backdrop of the brutal Peninsula War where atrocities were common place.
This book gives a fresh insight into Wellington's remarkable triumph over Napoleon's
