This book provides new archival information on the composition of the French, British, Prussian, Dutch, and other allied armies. It also provides a novel look at the campaign itself by providing a complete set of near-contemporary full color tactical maps together with a clear explanatory text. The combination of detail on the armies and their major combat arms, the discussion of their organization and equipment, combined with maps and the accompanying narrative provide a new look at Waterloo, Wavre, Ligny, and Quartre-Bras, detailed, impartial, and complete. They allow the reader to reconstruct in his own mind the grand tactics of these last battles of the Napoleonic Wars.
