Standard User Posts: 23 Cerdic 29th Jan 2015 03:22:06 I find a lot of inspiration from reading contemporary accounts. So look for diarys/letters/memoirs etc of the men who took part.
Examples that spring to mind include: "A Sergeant of the 71st", "A Gentleman Volunteer" by Hennell, "The Letters Of Private Wheeler". There was one in particular written by a subaltern where the Pyrenees featured quite heavily, but typically I can't remember the title! |
