NOTICE. Various circumstances over which the author had no control, have delayed until the present period the publication of this volume. Amongst others the length of time occupied in the collection and investigation of documents and details. This laborious task has been principally carried on by captain CHRISTOPH HEISE, of the Hanoverian rifle guards, who also has prepared the elaborate lists, containing summaries of the services and casualties of the corps, which will be found in the appendix. It would be an unpardonable omission on the part of the author, did he not further add, that to this able, patriotic, and indefatigable officer, the King's German Legion are mainly indebted for the completion of this history. Cork, Sept. 1837. |
