Description
Lavishly illustrated with colour reproductions of paintings and other mostly colour illustrations, this issue describes the war on the Iberian Peninsula in 1812, when British troops on the Iberian Peninsula under the Duke of Wellington and his allies went on the offensive against the beleaguered French occupation forces. Under this main theme, the 76th issue of Gloire & Empire covers the battle for Ciudad Rodrigo, the siege of Badajoz and, more generally, the impact of the Duke of Wellington's successful military ventures in Spain in 1812 on Napoleonic rule in the Iberian Peninsula. In addition to this main topic, the reader will again find a detailed analysis of a painting ("Les Frères Berthier en Italie" by Louis-Francois Lejeune), short biographies of one confidant (General Filippo Severoli) and one adversary (Louis-Victor-Mériadoc of Rohan and Charles-Alain-Gabriel of Rohan) of the French Emperor, as well as information on the uniform and organisation of a selected force of the Napoleonic Wars.
