William, a rabbit living on the site of the Battle of Waterloo, attunes himself to the echoes and ghosts of the battle and comes to recognise how deeply what happened on 18 June 1815 continues to reverberate. Zusammenfassung Magical! beguiling and distinctive: the story of the Battle of Waterloo (18 June 1815)! as told by a rabbit.
