About This Book

"In Wellington's two-front war, Joshua Moon not only surveys Wellington's command of British forces against the French but also describes the battles Wellington fought in England -- with an archaic military command structure, bureaucracy, and fickle public opinion ... Drawing on archival sources in the United Kingdom and at the United States Military Academy, Moon goes well beyond detailing military operations to delve into the larger effects of domestic policies, bureaucracy, and coalition building on strategy. Ultimately, Moon shows, the second front of Wellington's 'two-front war' was as difficult as the better-known struggle against Napoleon's troops and harsh conditions abroad"--Jacket.
