Four days in June : a battle lost, a battle won, June 1815
Gale, Iain2006
Books, Manuscripts
This is an imaginative reconstruction of five men, all real figures, and four days of one of the world's most famous battles. In June 1815, Napoleon had just escaped from Elba, the Bourbon kings were on the run and the Allied forces were in disarray. Although we may know the outcome, the drama keeps the reader absorbed.
