Recollections of a Military Life

"Recollections of a Military Life" by Sir John Adye

General Sir John Miller Adye was a British soldier and amateur artist. In this text, he narrates his extensive five-decade-long military career and the campaigns he served in that took him around the world to Egypt, Gibraltar, and even further away. Civilians and soldiers alike can read about the battles he participated in both those that led to victory and those that led to losses on the British front.
