Publisher Description: Originally published in 1847, Iberia Won is a history of Napoleon's Peninsular War by the author. It is a poem describing the peninsular war, with impressions from the visits to the battle-grounds and copious historical and illustrative notes. It contains the fruits of many excursions through Spain and Portugal, of considerable opportunities of observation, and much familiarity with localities and people, as well as of meditative habits in an isolated life, which during the last three years especially has been compelled by severe sickness. |
