Overview"This new edition of The Life and Campaigns of Field-Marshal Prince Blücher contains every word of the original book - more than 400 pages - complete with the original pagination, battle plans with coloured troop positions, a map of Germany with coloured outlines and a good index. ""Forwards!"" he was quoted as saying when arriving on the field of Waterloo in the late afternoon. ""I hear you say it's impossible, but it has to be done! I have given my promise to Wellington, and you surely don't want me to break it? Push yourselves, my children, and we'll have victory!"" With the battle hanging in the balance, Blücher's army intervened with decisive and crushing effect, his vanguard drawing off Napoleon's badly needed reserves, and his main body being instrumental in crushing French resistance at the Battle of Waterloo, with the intervention of Blücher's army playing a decisive role in the final allied victory."
