The armies of his Spanish allies had been overwhelmed and he faced a victorious French force under the Emperor Napoleon. He had little option but to order a retreat to the port of Corunna.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis became the most arduous of trials with armies traversing mountainous terrain over appalling roads in the depths of winter. Somehow Moore held his outnumbered, exhausted men together as they struggled to reach safety. Philip Haythornthwaite recounts how, finally, at Corunna, Moore's army turned to face its tormentors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Product","offer_id":57296573661528,"sku":"9781855329683","price":21.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781855329683.jpg?v=1778829379","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/corunna-1809","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
