Marbot fights off 3 British cavalrymen (Spain, 1811)

[Ulrich von L...n]

Yes, but I own the 3 vols of the second French edition!

Less lucky people (and with bad French), like myself, must be content with the English translation.

[Thearos]

Alas, I looked inside the book. 1891, like the first edition-- but in fact I have the 15th edition, if I understand correctly-- so that the book, in its first year, went through 15 printings, a sign of how popular it was.
