This book is an attempt to present the chief events in the last
campaign of Sir John Moore. Enough of Sir John Moore's life, and of
life in England, France, and Spain to explain those events has been
included. In several instances, perhaps important instances,
accounts of events as given here differ from what may be found
elsewhere. In such cases the documents upon which the present
narrative is based have been indicated. The list of those to whom I
am indebted is a long one. The staff of the Public Record Office
have been unfailingly helpful, pleasant, and ef ficient on the many
occasions when I have used the Record Office. The Librarian and
staff of the National Library of Scotland were most help ful when
the writer consulted the papers of Sir George Murray and the
manuscripts of Thomas Graham, Lord Lynedoch, in that Library. An
especially enjoyable occasion was the time spent in the Scottish
United Services Museum working with the Sir David Baird papers. I
am much indebted to The Honourable the Marquess of Anglesey for
permission to consult the Paget papers in the Library at
Plas-Newydd. The Libra rian and the Keeper of Manuscripts of the
John Rylands Library have been most kind and generous in making
available the papers of Sir Henry Clinton. As always, Mr."
