Felbrigg Napoleon Herriot
They called them the rascals in green—the sharp-eyed, sharp-tongued riflemen of the 95th who fired the first shot and the last in almost every scrap of Wellington's long, grinding war against Napoleon. Among them strode young John Kincaid, a subaltern with more dash than sense and a talent for finding the absurdity in mud, blood, and glory. From the fever-haunted marshes of Walcheren to the storming of Ciudad Rodrigo and Badajoz, through the rolling fights of the Peninsula and the final thunderclap at Waterloo, Kincaid lived the life of the Light Division at its fiercest—and its most human. Here are the nights spent half-starved under dripping cork trees, the forlorn hopes, the wild charges, the sudden flashes of humour that kept men sane when the world seemed determined to kill them. Written with the easy swagger of a man who has stared death in the face and decided to wink back, this is not dry military history. It is the living, breathing, laughing voice of a Rifleman who was there—and who never forgot a single vivid moment of it. One of the most vivid, witty, and unforgettable eyewitness accounts ever written of Wellington's army. A classic of the Peninsular War that still crackles with life.
