SWORDS OF HONOUR - Six Outstanding Miltary Lives - Profusely Illustrated This book outlines the eventful careers of six eminent nineteenth century soldiers.. All were officers and all were remarkable in their own fields though some achieved middle rank and others rose to the highest military levels. Within these pages are battles and experiences during the Napoleonic Age from Spain to America and Waterloo. The war in Afghanistan, the two Sikh Wars and the Indian Mutiny are also represented. The book concludes with the career of Thomas Jackson in Mexico and during the American Civil War. Filled with dozens of personal accounts from journals, 'Swords of Honour' is made particularly special by the inclusion of 46 illustrations by the accomplished military illustrator Stanley L Wood. An ideal reader and a perfect gift book for all occasions.
