A military biography of one of Wellington’s most celebrated lieutenants in the Peninsula War recounting the exploits of his Light Division, written by Craufurd’s grandson, who states that the book is ‘intended to be essentially light reading’ and salts it with interesting and amusing anecdotes.

The book comes complete with a fine portrait of Craufurd and facsimiles of letters praising him from Moore and Wellington.
