Summary
Fitchett's four-volume history is a stirring and frankly biased account of England's role as protector and defender of civilization against what the author terms "the wild-menace of Revolutionary France and the world-threatening despotism of Napoleon." In Volume Three, Fitchett focuses on the Peninsular War involving Spain (1808-1814). He explores the expeditions, retreats, fights, and campaigns which occurred during this period
