Original author: Charles Oman
"A History of the Peninsular War, Vol. 4, Dec. 1810-Dec. 1811: Massena's..." by Sir Charles Oman is a historical work published in 1911. This fourth volume chronicles a pivotal year of the Peninsular War, covering Massena's retreat and major battles including Fuentes de Onoro, Albuera, and Tarragona. Part of Oman's monumental seven-volume history, the work draws on extensive archival research and personal reconnaissance of battlefields. Oman aims to counter earlier biased accounts by presenting balanced analysis of all powers involved—Spanish, Portuguese, British, and French forces—with meticulous attention to personalities and strategic decisions.
