A famous account-two volumes complete in one book
Grattan's account of his service with the famous 88th-The Connaught
Rangers-the hardest fighting and possibly least appreciated
regiment in Wellington's famous Peninsula Army fighting Napoleon's
French, is well known and highly regarded by scholars and students
of the Napoleonic Wars alike. For those who may be unfamiliar with
it, this is a memoir full of incident and action, well written and
charmingly enhanced by the many characterisations of and anecdotes
about the irrepressible Irish soldiery who made up its ranks. This
edition, at some 560 pages, should not be confused with edited
versions in print; it is quite different. Grattan's account
originally ran to two volumes and later editors have seen fit to
considerably cut the text; had that editing only removed
uninteresting, irrelevant or unentertaining material there would
have been no purpose in this 'restored' edition. The Leonaur
editors are pleased to offer the entire 'Adventures in the
Connaught Rangers' unedited-both vital volumes in one edition for
your enjoyment. Available in soft cover and hard back with dust
jacket for collectors.
William Grattan was a young Irish Lieutenant who served in the
famous Connaught Rangers [the 88th regiment] in some of the hottest
engagements of the Peninsular War. Adventures with the Connaught
Rangers 18091814 is a memoir of his service with the 1st Battalion
of the 88th regiment. Vividly written and accompanied by maps, this
is one of the most famous fighting memoirs of the Peninsula War.
