Lord Hill has often been caricatured as an unctuous country squire, but this work corrects that impression. It details his fighting abilities, pointing out the brilliance with which he managed his troops and developed an esprit de corps among his men, and describes his ruthless, lightning-fast attacks that led to victories in the Peninsular campaign and at Waterloo.
