註釋
On 25 October 1854, during the Crimean War, there took place probably the most memorable episode in the story of the British Army - the Charge of the Light Brigade. Ever since, when people argue over the cause of the disaster, one name recurs: that of Captain Louis Edward Nolan. What could he have possibly been thinking as he delivered the order which set the Light Brigade charging in the wrong direction? Unfortunately, Nolan was killed minutes later and therefore in no position to explain himself, but now, for the first time, with the publication in full of his campaign journal, everyone can discover what, in the previous few weeks, he had actually been thinking.
