The Curious Case of Badajoz
Episode 3 of my podcast The #Napoleonicist is live. It marks the recent anniversary of the siege of Badajoz, and is entitled 'The Curious Case of Badajoz: The aftermath of British sieges in the Peninsular War'. It discusses the looting, murder and rape of one of the most controversial events of the war, and explores the previously unasked question 'what was actually done about it?' https://anchor.fm/the-napoleonicist/episodes/The-Curious-Case-of-Badajoz-The-aftermath-of-British-sieges-in-the-Peninsular-War-ecqaj8 Remember that you can join the discussion, ask questions and have your say by posting below.

That's very kind Rui - thank you! Sadly my Portuguese is non-existent, but I appreciate the offer. I have colleague who might be able to help though if you do manage to find anything.
