How could I?!
British Life Guards clash with French Cuirassiers |
This most famous of battles was my early interest in wargaming, probably after viewing the movie "Waterloo" (still a great movie for the Napoleonic crowd) My first historical book, that of the battle, is still in my library some 47 years later. I remember discovering it, with all the pretty pictures, at a used book store but not having the money to purchase it; waiting a full week until I could get back to the store; hoping beyond hope that it would still be there during all that time. It was, thankfully.
So Happy Waterloo Day and hope your Napoleonics painting or game will be that more fun for it.
