My Early Adventures During The Peninsular Campaigns Of Napoleon (1833) is a memoir written by Selina Bunbury, an English woman who lived through the Peninsular War, a series of conflicts between France and Spain that took place between 1807 and 1814. The book describes Bunbury’s experiences as a young girl during this tumultuous period, including her travels across Europe with her family, her encounters with soldiers and civilians, and her observations of the war’s impact on the people of Spain and Portugal. Bunbury’s writing provides a unique perspective on the Peninsular War, as she was able to witness the events firsthand and offer a personal account of the war’s effects on both individuals and society as a whole. The book is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a little-known aspect of the Napoleonic Wars, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of this period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
