| At Lord Palmerston's instigation 10,000 men of the British Auxiliary Legion fought in the First Carlist War, supporting Queen Isobella II of Spain against her uncle the pretender Don Carlos; this confused guerilla war is now seldom remembered by the rest of the world but continues to have repercussions in today's Spain. Brett unravels the threads of the conflict and focuses especially on the ill-supplied Legion's heavy losses to typhus. | |||||
