설명
In the immediate aftermath of the Battle of Waterloo, tourists flocked from Britain to witness the scene of the most important conflict of their generation. Walter Scott was among them, with a commission from his publisher for a travel book and a long poem. These prose and verse accounts bring to vivid life the carnage, spectacle, and excitement of a fascinating period of European history. Brilliantly introduced and annotated by Paul O'Keeffe, this edition elucidates and contextualizes Scott's first-hand account of his travels, his dashing epic The Field of Waterloo, and the eerily chilling Dance of Death.
