After midnight, 19 June 1815... On the battlefield more than 50,000
men and 7,000 horses lie dead and wounded; the wreckage of a once
proud French Grande Armee struggles in abject disorder to the
Belgian frontier pursued by murderous Prussian lancers; and
Napoleon Bonaparte, exhausted and stunned at the scale of his
defeat, rode through the darkness towards Paris, abdication and
captivity. In the days, weeks and months that followed, news of the
battle shaped the consciousness of an age. Drawing on a
multiplicity of contemporary voices and viewpoints, Paul O'Keeffe
brings into focus as never before the sights, sounds and smells of
the battlefield, of conquest and defeat, of celebration and riot.
