P ENIN SUL AR SKETCHES;
BY ACTORS ON THE SCENE.
Edited by W. H. MAXWELL, Esq.
Author of " Stories of Waterloo," &c.
The arduous struggle in the Peninsula, from the opening action
at Rolica to the crowning victory at Toulouse, may be found, in most
of its important occurrences, faithfully described in theso volumes,
which consist of narratives descriptive of the glorious and protracted
contest, for the most part from the pens of the gallant actors who
took a prominent part in the war, and who have pourtrayed the
stirring events that successively took place under their own imme-
diate observation. Such records of British valour and daring must
prim cordially welcome to every Englishman.
