How England Saved Europe - The Story of the Great War 1793-1815
PREFACE. THE Author of this very practical treatise on Scotch Loch - Fishing desires clearly that it may be of use to all who had it. He does not pretend to have written anything new, but to have attempted to put what he has to say in as readable a form as possible. Everything in the way of the history and habits of fish has been studiously avoided, and technicalities have been used as sparingly as possible.

Deeds That Won the Empire
"Deeds that Won the Empire" from William Henry Fitchett. Australian journalist, minister, newspaper editor (1841-1928).
Wellington's Men
Wellington's Peninsula Campaign as told by four soldiers who lived through it: John Kincaid - Adventures in the Rifle Brigade, Benjamin Harris - Rifleman Harris, James Anton - Military Life, Cavalie Mercer - Waterloo. Wellington's Men is perhaps best summarized by the words of the author in the opening sentence of the book. "This volume is an attempt to rescue from undeserved oblivion a cluster of soldierly autobiographies; and to give to the general reader some pictures of famous battles, not as described by the historian or analysed by the philosopher, but as seen by the eyes of men who fought in them." Fitchett attempts that rescue with a brilliant rendering and analysis of parts of four biographies-written by two junior officers, a sergeant, and a private soldier. Each of these men were eye-witnesses to the major events of Wellington's Peninsula Campaign, and write about both what they saw, and what they thought about what they saw. They are the "...actual human documents, with the salt of truth, of sincerity, and of reality in every syllable." Each of these books is presented and discussed by one of the finest historians of his day: William Henry Fitchett - Wellington's Men
