This is a very attractively illustrated celebration of Wellington's victorious campaign against Napoleon offered here in a special copy enhanced by additional plates many depicting principal actors in the conflict and a stately Neoclassical binding. Famed illustrator George Cruikshank drew the frontispiece depicting the seven general officers for the British side along with the ebullient illustrated title depicting victory the double-page plate of the fateful Battle of Waterloo and the ignominious "Flight of Bonaparte." The plates contributed by James Rouse mostly depict the countryside and villages in the area where fighting was taking place. Journalist and novelist William Mudford 1782-1848 wrote the text with assistance from primary sources among these the Duke of Wellington himself to whom the work is dedicated. Mudford was the editor of the "Courier" an evening journal with a conservative stance on politics. His prose is described as "vigorous" by the "Dictionary of Literary Biography" which also notes his flair for creating atmosphere. These gifts were brought to bear on the present account rendering this historic campaign in vivid terms. The manuscript letter inserted into the second volume was written by Lord Charles Whitworth 1752-1825 Lord Lieutenant of Ireland at the time of writing. He had been the British Ambassador to France when Napoleon was first consul and had gained much respect for the determination and dignity with which he had handled the mercurial Bonaparte's tirades against his country. Here he recommends to an unknown recipient the person who had conducted financial affairs for him in France. The present bindings are the work of the London bindery of W. T. Morrell established about 1861 as successor to the firm begun by Francis Bedford who in turn had taken over the famous bindery of Charles Lewis. Prideaux in her "Modern Bookbindings" says that Morrell at that time had a very large business that supplied "all the booksellers with bindings designed by his men" which were "remarkable for their variety and merit." The scion of an old and prosperous New England family former owner Frederick Stanhope Peck 1868-1947 was an avid collector of books and manuscripts amassing a collection of more than 8000 titles. When his library went to auction in 1944 it was noted for its fine bindings and excellent condition. Henry Colburn unknown
