INTRODUCING MATTHEW HERVEY OF THE 6th LIGHT DRAGOONS...

As the war against Bonaparte rages to its bloody end upon the field of Waterloo, a young officer goes about his duty in the ranks of Wellington's
army. He is Cornet Matthew Hervey of the 6th Light Dragoons - a soldier, gentleman and man of honour who suddenly finds himself allotted a hero's role...

'Now at last a highly literate, deeply read cavalry officer of high rank shows one the nature of horse-borne warfare in those times: and Colonel Mallinson's A Close Run Thing is very much to be welcomed' -Patrick O'Brian

'Allan Mallinson has a splendid feeling for period and for soldiers. His tale of Waterloo will delight all those who share his enthusiasm' -Max Hastings
