Book Description

I will venture to say, that every officer and soldier that had served against the French in the Penin sula, took individual pleasure in hearing the recep tion given to Marshal Soult, which, on the part of the people, was so general and enthusiastic, as to appear less a matter of personal respect, than a spontaneous expression of good feeling towards our late enemies.
