On a damp, overcast Sunday in June 1815, the twenty years of continuous warfare of the Napoleonic Wars came to an epic and costly conclusion on a rain-soaked field in Belgium. These wars were indeed a global affair, with the great European powers fighting not only on mainland Europe but also in places as far away as India, Egypt, the Caribbean and America. The greatest generals of the era faced each other on the battlefield. The Duke of Wellington defends a little-known ridge against the Emperor of the French. Napoleon Bonaparte, master of the attack faces British, German, Dutch and Belgian brigades. Brigades of an inglorious army that, despite terrible losses, held the crest for over 9 hours, allowing the arrival of the Prussian army under Blücher to finally seal the Duke's victory.
The Battle of Waterloo became a milestone of military history. A milestone that will never fade, and nothing like it will be seen again.
