520 2  "The panoramic story of Waterloo, from its causes to its 
       aftermath, told through uniquely interwoven narratives 
       drawn from the diaries, letters, reminiscences, and great 
       novels of participants and witnesses--published in time 
       for the 200th anniversary of the battle. With Bonaparte's 
       escape from Elba in February 1815, the world was jolted 
       from the profound peace it had experienced for eleven 
       months back into the frenzied panic of a war it believed 
       had ended. David Crane captures the mixture of excitement 
       and fear that gripped England in the final days of a war 
       that opened up complex divisions in its society--from 
       Liverpool merchants who celebrated the end of hostilities 
       with America and stood allied against another war, to the 
       children of the Romantic Age who felt torn between their 
       own patriotism and a lingering hero-worship that no crime 
       of Napoleon's could eradicate. And he gives us an 
       unprecedented, revelatory hour-by-hour account of the day 
       of the battle. Focusing as much upon the boys and men torn
       from their farms and flocks as on the aristocratic 
       families who provided Wellington with his officers, Went 
       the Day Well? is a remarkable portrait of an entire nation
       engaged in a battle that changed the history of our world"
