About this ebook

Fin Ross grew up working on the land in the small village of Pamphill, Dorset, as the ripples of the French Revolution began to have their impact on Britain. Bound to the ‘de Lacey’ family who owned the magnificent Great House, Fin is discovered in a place that he probably should not have been and observing something that he probably should not have seen but which would change his life.

Having to flee from his home, Fin ‘volunteers’ for the army, starting a new life that leads him into adventures across Southern England but swiftly moves to Portugal and one of the greatest battles of the era. He learns to survive not only from the threat of musket, sword and cannon from the enemy, but also from those who have followed him from his home.

Trusted friends become an integral part of Fin’s fight for survival as he faces up to shot, shell, accusation and treachery...

Stuart Fox

Stuart grew up in Rochester, Kent, trained as a teacher at Borough Road College and started his first teaching post in Suffolk in September 1980. He worked in four schools during his teaching career acting in different roles including headteacher, retiring after 37 years. He has a large extended family and his daughters have him busy travelling the country keeping up with all that they are involved in! His love of Napoleonic history started in the days when Airfix made plastic figures and he was taken to the film Waterloo by his dad. Although more of a spectator nowadays, he still loves sport and will often be seen shouting at a TV screen with friends as they tell the players what they should have done!
