" small portrait engraving of Wellington on the title page; at some early stage tissue was affixed to card covers tissue now browned and chipped at edges but card covers remain very good with minimal edgewear; uncut pages. 'Schoon Verbond' is the earliest Dutch translation of the Prussian term 'Belle Alliance' used for the Battle of Waterloo. It is also the name of the small farm in the Province of Brabant Belgium the subject of the engraving which was at the center of the French position in the battle and Napoleon's headquarters The British designated the battle 'Waterloo' after the small town where Wellington had his headquarters thinking that a name calling to mind the enemy command post was unsuitable.

After both he and his friend become enamored with Lightfoot a young woman they fight over her which ends in his friend's death.
