Download or read book Journal of the Waterloo Campaign Volume 1 written by General Cavalie Mercer and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2012-11-16 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 1 of 2. The author of this book was commander of 'G' Troop, Royal Horse Artillery, in Wellington's army, who jotted down notes on the events of the day each evening. It is an account of what he saw and felt from leaving Colchester for Belgium on 8 April 1815 to his final return to England at the end of January 1816. It is a remarkable and compelling account, especially of the three days which ended the career of Napoleon. Mercer's troop was at Quatre Bras, where he got off a few rounds at Napoleon himself, and at Waterloo. There are graphic descriptions of the battles and of his tour over the battlefield the day after, with its appalling scenes of carnage and the sight of the locals looting the dead, and the not-quite dead. It is an outstanding example of the literature of the Napoleonic wars, and it has a rarity as the memoir of an artillery officer, and a troop commander at that.

In 1824 he was ordered to Canada, having the brevet rank of major (i should have noticed that at Waterloo he only held the rank of second captain, although commanding a troop - Sir Alex.

He subse quently commanded the garrison at Dover, after which he retired from active service, although, being colonel - commandant of the 9th Brigade of -royal Artillery, he was never placed on the retired list. From that time to the period of his death, at the advanced age of eighty-five, he con tinued to reside at Cowley Cottage, near Exeter.
