Download or read book Wellington written by Philip J. Haythornthwaite and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2011-09 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the Duke of Wellington's officers once remarked, "We would rather see his long nose in the sight than a reinforcement of ten thousand men." Arthur Wellesley, first duke of Wellington (1769-1852), was one of the greatest military commanders in history and is best known as the successful opponent at Waterloo of arguably the leading general of all time, Napoleon Bonaparte. Although Waterloo is the battle most associated with Wellington, his career was much wider. He gained his first military experience in the Netherlands in 1793-94 in an unsuccessful campaign that taught him, as he said, "how not to do it." From there he went to India, where he conducted a number of successful campaigns and honed his military skills until he became Britain's leading general. With great strategic foresight and as master not only of the battlefield but also of organization and logistics, he helped expel the French from Spain and Portugal during the Peninsular War, which materially weakened Napoleon's strategic position and led to his downfall in 1814. After Napoleon returned from exile in 1815, Wellington was a principal leader of the coalition forces at Waterloo. In subsequent years, Wellington exerted a considerable influence on British politics, serving as prime minister and in later life as a trusted elder statesman. Upon his death, he was widely regarded as the greatest Briton of his generation and undisputedly one of the greatest British soldiers. The Duke of Wellington has been the subject of many biographies over the years but none as comprehensive yet concise as this latest addition to Potomac's Military Profiles series.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, was an iconic figure in the British and world's history, most known for his victory over Napoleon Buonaparte at Waterloo in 1815. With Marshal Ney and Prussian general Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher, Wellington defeated the French troops, bringing the Napoleonic era in Europe. Yet, the life of Wellington was full of other important events. Twice in his life, he took the position of Prime Minister as a member of the Tory cabinet. He also was appointed a Governor of Plymouth, a Commander-in-Chief of the British Army, and Constable of the Tower of London. His military career included numerous trips to different parts of the world, including Holland, India, Denmark, Spain, Portugal, and France. The prosperous army career of the Duke of Wellington includes many victories thanks to his strategic talent. The plans of his battles are still a subject of studies in military schools all over the world. A reader has a unique chance to learn about the most critical battles and political events of the Napoleonic era from the memoirs of Wellington. The book tells his life story from the beginning of his political career to the victory in the Battle at Waterloo.
