Shot-proof, fever-proof and a veteran campaigner at the age of 25, Brigade-Major Harry Smith is reputed to be the luckiest man in Lord Wellington's army. Yet after the seige of Barbados, his fellow officers watch in dismay as he marries a fourteen year old Spanish noblewoman. "The Spanish Bride" follows their fortunes through all the campaigns and tells of the exciting life of a military wife who 'followed the drum' during the Regency period.
