Wellington's Greatest Victory
As Wellington month continues, Mark Thompson, Marcus Cribb, Beatrice de Graaf, and Josh Provan join me to argue for the Lines of Torres Vedras, Oporto, Toulouse and Assaye as Wellington's greatest victories. This one is a laughter filled and spirited epic (I blame the heat!) - enjoy!

I have no clue about the Peninsular War - still very worthwhile to listen to me, especially sleeping Soult and the whole French army at Oporto, now who would have thought that they behave like some Prussian generals in 1806??
My choice as his greatest victory - Vittoria 1813.
