Wellington at Waterloo and the British Valor
An analysis contrasts French and British forces at Waterloo, noting French numbers around 70 000 to 90 000 and British troops about 60 000 to 80 000. It lauds Wellington for leading with undaunted courage, cites d Alava on the battle’s outcome, and recalls honors from India and Sir Walter Scott.
