BOOKS PRINTING FOR MR. MURRAY.

NARRATIVE of a RESIDENCE in BELGIUM during the Campaign of 1815, and of a Visit to the FIELD of WATERLOO, by an ENGLISH WOMAN, author of Circumstantial Details of the Battle of Waterloo, by a near Observer, 8vo.

After the numerous works which have already appeared upon this subject, it may seem superfluous and even presumptuous, to obtrude another on the notice of the Public. This little Narrative has however one claim on its attention, which no other possesses-in being the simple and faithful account of one who was herself a spectator of the scenes which she describes, and a witness of the events which she relates during those days of desperate conflict and unparalleled victory, which must be for ever memorable in British history, and for ever interesting to British hearts.

It was written whilst the impression was yet fresh upon the mind, and the thoughts and feelings which such awful and affecting circumstances were irresistibly calculated to inspire, were expressed without restraint, in the full security of the sympathy and approbation of the partial friends for whose perusal, alone, it was intended; and in compliance with whose judgment it is now published, without any alteration, except the omission of some passages of mere personal interest.

The writers, whose talents have been so nobly displayed in describing the Field of Waterloo, were not, like the Author of this Narrative, on the spot when these glorious events took place; they were pilgrims who afterwards visited the memorable scenes on which they had been acted; they related the past— she delineates the present; she is well aware, however, that the superiority which her account possesses, is that of chance alone, theirs, that of excellence. AUTHOR'S PREFACE.
