Hi guys
This is the sort of thing – a Napoleonic newsflash – I associate with those frequent (and useful) notices from Armand:
'A letter written from the body-strewn battlefield at Waterloo, an invasion map of the UK, and a book from Napoleon's personal library in exile will go on display in Cambridge during one of the first major Waterloo exhibitions of the bicentenary commemorations.
A Damned Serious Business: Waterloo 1815, the Battle and its Books, will be opened by the current Duke of Wellington, Charles Wellesley, at Cambridge University Library on April 30. The exhibition runs until September 16, 2015.'

… perhaps Armand or someone else has already posted about this? If not, then I hope it might be of interest.
I'm chuffed, 'cause in addition to the Napoleonic prints at the Fitzwilliam museum, it's another local Waterloo 200th event on my doorstep!
Cheers
Sebastian
