Following up his work on the life of Nelson published the previous year, Arthur Bryant returned to the biographical field in which he first made his name and has written an enthralling narrative on Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington, which is equal in scholarship, breadth of vision and depth of human sympathy to his earlier biographies of Charles II and Pepys.
