Contents

  • Attack! The thunder of the Regimental drums rise to a crescendo as the Infantry press doggedly forward into the roaring inferno of massed artillery fire. In the thick of the engagement is young Ralph Conway, fighting, at the age of sixteen, in one of history's greatest battles - Waterloo! Ralph's service in the army is the climax to a series of exciting adventures - serving before the mast as a prisoner in a French privateer, tracking down bootleggers in Ireland and capturing the desperado known as the Red Captain.
