Description
The armies of the Duke of Wellington and Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte finally met in the cataclysmic and decisive battle of Waterloo in Flanders. Virtually all European historians since then have seen this as a turning point in history which changed the map of Europe and ultimately, the world. The hero of this Henty story, Ralph Conway, has many varied and exciting adventures before coming to Waterloo. He enters the army, enlisting in the 28th Regiment with his friend Stapleton, and after some engaging in some serious fighting in Ireland, take part also in the Waterloo campaign, from which he returns with the loss of an arm, but with a substantial fortune and much military decoration.
