Summary
The contributors shed fresh light on the life, character and achievements of the man who is arguably the best known figure in British history--the Duke of Wellington. They reflect the new wave of Wellington studies which has resulted from the opening of the massive Wellington archive at Southampton University. Their essays provide a thematic and chronological sequence illustrating the Duke's many-faceted career, from early life to his later years, when he was the most celebrated figure in public life. Distributed by St. Martin's. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR.
