Book Description
Excerpt from The Life of a Regiment: The History of the Gordon Highlanders From Its Formation in 1794 to 1816 I have been at pains to have the illustrations of uniform and costume correct, and they are taken as far as possible from contemporary sketches in the British Museum, by British and French artists, the drawings being done by Messrs R. Hope, H. Payne, and R. Simkin. I am indebted to the courtesy of Messrs Blackwood Sons for the permission to use the plans of Vittoria, Orthes, quatre-bras, and Waterloo from Alison's History of Europe, plans being also taken from Napier's History of the Peninsular War, and others.
