Description
The BATTLE OF WATERLOO - 1815 - marked the end of the Napoleonic Wars. Here Wellington's British infantry fight it out with Napoleon's crack Old Guard. Wellington remarked afterwards that it was a "close-run thing" - Waterloo was certainly one the the world's most important and crucial battles. my ref: 12740 from Cassells History of England-circa 1890
