Philadelphia: Carey and Hart, 1842. In the days after the Battle of Waterloo (June 18, 1816) surveyor and cartographer W.-B. Craan was able to interview many officers, from both sides, as they recovered from their wounds in Brussels. From their descriptions of the battle, Craan drew up this detailed map of the battlefield, adding his own interpretive notes. These were published together in Brussels in September 1816. Evaluated by many of the high-ranking leaders of the participating armies, the map was deemed to be accurate in its detail, and retains its significance since it includes some facts forgotten or ignored by later military historians. The next year was published in London "An Historical Account of the Battle of Waterloo: Fought on the 18th of June, 1815, intended to Elucidate the Topographical Plan" with further explanatory notes by Capt. Arthur Gore [T. Parker, 1817; S. Leigh, 1817]). The copy offered here is the original Brussels edition, along with the original explanatory note (both… Leer más
