The Peninsular Campaigns continue, with holding Cadiz essential lest the British be confined to Gibraltar. Our protagonist finds himself leading a handful of men on detached duty while burdened with a complaining general who has a broken leg. His life goes downhill from there....
As is his custom, there are close descriptions of battle as experienced on the ground.
