Another great comment from Corporal Trim that you might miss so I am posting it -
these memoirs - I've never read them before - they're excellent...in English... full of detail and free to download. A must for anyone interested in military matters of this period. The bits I have read are superb. Thanks Corporal Trim again...
You're quite welcome, Ralphus. I agree, it's quite an enjoyable read. Even if de la Colonie's role grew in the retelling, it's still a great eyewitness account of a soldier's life and times.
