With Glover's work on the Waterloo sources, we have the very real prospect of being able to revisit earlier conclusions and test them against this primary source material. Historians will get excited, enthusiasts will feel a stronger connection to the past, descendents will feel closer to their forebears, new levels of understanding will develop and so many will benefit. That all makes this volume and its sisters a very valuable expansion of our knowledge of history.

Firetrench

The last volume of this superb series by no means appears to be 'scarping the barrel' indeed it almost appears as if Gareth Glover has saved the best bits to the end. The illustrations are beautifully reproduced. The series as a whole is a must for anyone who aspires to understand the battle and its context, the men, their families and the times they lived and died in. ... Highly recommended.

Clash of Steel

This collection will be an invaluable resource for future generations.

Classic Arms & Militaria

He brings the human aspect of war and military campaigning to the fore: the humour and exhilaration, the fears and miseries, the starvation and exhaustion, the horror and the joy. He also provides an invaluable new source which will challenge preconceptions, disprove theories, destroy myths and allow for a complete re-evaluation of many key aspects of the campaign.

Skirmish - Living History

Crammed with new insights into different aspects of the campaign and its key participants, the book draws on an impressive range of sources from regimental museums and archives of Britain, the Commonwealth and of the United States, to private letters and journals.

Cardiff Times

The book works through the various north German Contingents, adding a Prussian account at the end just to be exotic. With the reservation that you have to be very into Waterloo, this is a fine book, to be highly recommended.
