    About this series

    An anthology of memoirs of the Peninsular War and the abortive attack on Bergen-op-Zoom in 1814.
    In this first volume, Captain Cooke recounts his experiences with the 43rd Foot at Ciudad Rodrigo, Badajoz, the battles of Salamanca, Vittoria, the Pyrenees, the Bidassoa, the Nive, Nivelle and Toulouse. As with many of the British officer memoirs, there is a tone of dry wit about his writing.

      An anthology of memoirs of the Peninsular War and the abortive attack on Bergen-op-Zoom in 1814. This second volume includes two accounts from either end (chronologically) of Captain Cooke’s narrative on the initial campaign into Spain in 1809 under the Duke of Wellington, recounted by the Earl of Munster. It also recounts the disastrous night attack on Bergen-op-Zoom by the British troops under Lord Lynedoch by Lieutenant Moodie, in which he leaves out none of the horrific carnage of the bungling coup de main.
