The Duke of Wellington by Matthew Shaw
The Duke of Wellington had an unmatched career as soldier, politician and statesman, and is lauded as the man who defeated Napoleon at the battle of Waterloo. This biography charts the life of a man whose reputation as the aloof 'Iron Duke' masked a complex man of strong passions and with a keen awareness of his public persona.
Matthew Shaw is curator of United States Collections at the British Library and was formerly curator of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century manuscripts.
