Surviving Borodino

By Shaun Parker

Imagine for one minute you are incapacitated in a place of complete desolation, surrounded by carcases, bodies and the debris left from a battle that resulted in 50,000 dead human beings and 30,000 dead horses.

Somehow you have to survive....

The French immediately pursued the Russians all the way to Moscow leaving behind all the corpses and most of the wounded. For many of those left on the battlefield clinging to life death would come for them over the next three or four days.

But a few, just a handful found a way to exist in the folorn hope that there would be salvation and The Grand Armee would come for them.

The carnage and misery of the battle was only surpassed by the gruelling challenge for survival for the wounded left behind on the battlefield.

Surviving Borodino - is a short story that covers just one day of survival for those left behind in the wasteland that is the battlefield of Borodino.
