Beskrivelse af The Military Adventures Of Johnny Newcome
The Military Adventures of Johnny Newcome is a book written by David Roberts that tells the story of a young man named Johnny Newcome who joins the British army and goes on various military campaigns. The book is divided into two parts, the first of which describes Johnny's experiences fighting in the Peninsular War, a conflict fought by the British against the French in Spain and Portugal in the early 19th century. The second part of the book takes place in London, where Johnny is stationed after the war and becomes involved in various social and political intrigues. Throughout the book, Roberts provides detailed descriptions of military tactics, equipment, and daily life in the army, as well as satirical commentary on British society and politics. The book also includes notes by the author that provide historical context and explain some of the more obscure references in the text. Overall, The Military Adventures of Johnny Newcome is a humorous and entertaining look at life in the British army during the Napoleonic Wars.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
