5.0 out of 5 stars Scholarship sheds light on what we thought was true., May 2, 2001
By A Customer
"History is written by the winners." Or so it is thought. The winner of the Battle of Waterloo is supposed to be the British under the Duke of Wellington. Due to a common language, their version of history has been prevelant in the US. David Hamilton-Williams' scholarship gives us a view that the "winners" have left out. Why? Because with the light of truth, it does not let them be seen in the best light. This book helps to give credit where it is due. Meaning the Dutch & Belgian allies of the British and Prussia. It also exposes the highly biased version that the "winners" have perpetrated.

I am shocked to find this book in the bargain section of amazon's web-site. If this is were you found it, then you've found a gem at a great price! Buy it! I highly recommend all of the books by this author.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, fascinating book., July 16, 2001
By A Customer
I have enjoyed reading this fascinating book. There are many books written about this battle, but majority of them are so nationally biased. If you are bored with reading the 100th book from the British perspective of this battle, read Americans, Germans and the Dutch. Then and only then you will get the full truth of what really happened.

I recommed reading Hamilton-Williams.

1.0 out of 5 stars Work of fiction, June 9, 2001
By A Customer
Is this still selling? It must be five years since the author's sources were checked out and shown to owe something to imagination. I checked one myself alleged to show Ziethen's line of comms - turned out to be an 1817 letter from the UK Foreign Secretary to Wellington in Paris about the locals getting restless. File it between Sharpe and any other fiction you might have - or the hamster might enjoy it. Better still, go to a library and check a few sources yourself. Shame on the publishers for putting this out.
