What should have been done and what might have been done. Predictions and Plans. Small 8vo. Three plates. Very good in the original red cloth, gilt, just a little rubbed. [vi], 108pp. William Blackwood and Sons, Edinburgh, 1855.
The title page gives Gleig’s regiment as 92nd Highlanders, the 1865 records him as Major, 14th Foot on half-pay. Gleig appears to have conducted most of his “Campaign” through the letters column of the Morning Herald, he did, after all, sign his last letter as “An Officer - Who never saw a Shot fired.” An interesting and rather attractive little item.
