A series of letters from Lieutenant-General Sir William Warre, written principally to his mother and father during the Peninsular War, as complied by his nephew, the Rev. Edmond Warre in 1909. A fascinating first-hand account of a traumatic period in Portugal’s history.I have included this in the port section simply because of the family link to the port shipper Warre & Co.

Also available as a facsimile re-print.
