A Royal Engineer's view of the war in the Iberian Peninsula-two volumes in one Young Captain Charles Boothby of the Royal Engineers served in Spain as part of Wellington's army fighting the invading French forces of Napoleon. Posterity is fortunate in that following his experiences he put his recollections in writing in the form of two separate books, 'Under England's Flag' and its sequel, which covers the period up to his wounding, capture and imprisonment, 'A Prisoner in France.' Both of these books are rare and not often seen as modern reprints or on the antiquarian market. So Leonaur is delighted to present both volumes of Boothby's engaging account in a single unique volume. Accounts by Royal Engineers are not commonplace among Napoleonic War first hand accounts which makes this book particularly exceptional. Present at the the little reported Battle of Maida in Italy, Boothby was also engaged in early Peninsular War Campaigns including Corunna, under Sir John Moore. Upon returning to the Iberian Peninsular he was wounded at the Battle of Talavera. This book is an essential addition to any library of the Peninsular War, but readers with a more casual interest can be assured that Boothby is an entertaining author who recounts his story in a personable style full of incident, anecdote and important campaign and battlefield detail. Recommended. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
