A history of the Peninsular War, Vol. 1, 1807-1809

Note 514 — SECTION VII: CHAPTER VI

Reading edition

All this narrative comes from Philippe de Ségur, who must be followed in preference to the 13th Bulletin and all the witnesses who allege that the Poles did reach the battery. He, if any one, knew what really happened (Mémoires, iii. 281-5). His account of the whole business is in close accord with that of De Pradt, who was also an eye-witness.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
