The author had been "educated above his station" by doting parents, and ran away from home after a failed attempt to be an actor. He enlisted on impulse and spent his enlistment term in South America and the peninsular. The memoirs were published shortly afterwards, anonymously. Full of detail from the perspective of a private.

First published in 1819, this memoir covers Whitelocke's disastrous South American adventure in 1806, the Penisular War, the Walcheren expedition and the Battle of Waterloo - where he narrowly escaped death. A cannonball struck the ground in front of him, knocked him head-over-heels and shattered his musket. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
