One of the 28th - a Tale of Waterloo by G. A. Henty (1832 - 1902‪)‬ LibriVox

Excellent

Mike Harris read this book and another Henty book we have just started listening. He may be the one to read them all or at least more of them. His voice is soothing and makes the story enjoyable.
My 16 yr old son was sad when we ended the book as it meant we wouldn’t hear any more of Ralph’s life.
The story itself keeps you drawn in and leaves you waiting to hear the next chapter. It gives you information about present history of the character in a way you want to learn more.
