Description

This book explores the role and context of Craufurd’s Light Division that acted as Wellington’s Advanced Guard in the Peninsula. In early 1810 Wellington could only run a defensive campaign, and the role of the Light Division enabled him, not only to remain in the Peninsula but to then mount an offensive campaign, that would eventually see the French being forced back into France.
