Hello Mr Cornwell,
as always it has been a pleasure to read your latest book. I am currently reading Waterloo as it was one that fell by the wayside for me when it was first released. so far it is, as always, excellent.
My question was regarding women who accompanied the army on campaign, those wives who were ‘on the strength’. I have struggled to find an answer and was hopping you would be able to help. When did this practice end come to an end?
Many thanks,
Luke Fieldhouse
