This highly detailed new book is the first of two concerned with the role of the Netherlands troops during the Waterloo campaign; and forms part of an exciting new series on the events of June 1815. Drawn exclusively from contemporary manuscript sources; the book contains a wealth of previously unpublished material written by officers and men who served with the Netherlands contingent within the Allied army commanded by the Duke of Wellington; all of which has been professionally translated into English. The details contained within the letters and reports provides significant new information on many of the most critical moments in the campaign; including the communication with the Duke of Wellington and his staff on the 15th June; following confirmation of the French advance; the role of the Netherlands troops during the early stages of the fighting at Les Quatre Bras; and the part played by the 3rd Netherlands Division during the attack by the Imperial Guard at the climax of the battle of Waterloo. The extraordinary text is supplemented by colour contour maps and ten pages of full colour illustrations by Gerry Embleton; making the book is an essential addition to every Waterloo collection.

Peace of mind through religious thoughts and prayersBy CtraderAlthough this book was written many centuries ago but it included lots of applicable helpful thoughts and tactics to help any one to stop the worries and achieve peace of mind it emphasize on the power of prayers and details many benefits (76 benefits) to the supplication. When I go through those benefits I stop usually at some points and I find it more than enough to calm me down and take the heavy worries out of my back and - in no time- I recollect myself and become more positive thinker rather than dwelling on any negative thoughts. It give me the power of trust in bigger power than my self and shows me ways to express myself with confidence that who I am talking to; will help me achieve all what I want and protect me of anything I dislike or fear. This unique collection of the benefits is more than just a mere collection it is different way of thinking about the ultimate power that is willing to help us and how this power encourage us to come; talk; and ask and (this power) assures us that it will be given.I can see a lot of what Dr. Josef Murphy mentioned in his great book "the power of your subconscious mind" in this book.The subconscious mind listens to the prayers and helps us achieve what we ask for. It shows that the pure and original version of all the religions are very common and helpful to the human being to live successful and peaceful life while the tendency to argue and challenge is the road to conflict.Anyway; this book helped me so many times to come back to a very nice peaceful state of mind and I hope it will help everyone who read it0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
