Return to Hougoumont is a graphic account of a defining moment in the Battle of Waterloo. Early on in this momentous battle French troops drove contingents of the Coldstream Guards from a pine wood and into the adjacent Hougoumont Farm where the main Guards contingent was dug in within the walls. For a brief moment there was a chance for the French to breach the North Gate, it was bloody and glorious. Death was indescriminate in this struggle and heroes decided the fate of many.
Had Hougoumont fallen then Wellington's position would of been untennable and history would of had a different outcome.
This is a gripping account told by Shaun Parker in his first short story.
