Peninsular campaigns, naval battles and the commanders and statesmen of Wellington's age fill Life & Times of the Duke of Wellington, Lieutenant-Colonel Williams's account of the Duke's career, published by John Tallis & Company around 1855. Maps associated with John Rapkin combine outlines of Spain, Portugal, Brussels and other theatres with vignette views of buildings and landscapes. The prints add battle scenes, naval episodes and portraits, reaching beyond Wellington himself to Abercromby, Nelson, Cornwallis and the political figures of the day.
