18 June 1815. Wellington describes it as a 'near run thing', and the French, led by Napoleon were unfortunate in allowing the Prussians to come to Wellingtons aid in the afternoon. Ney & Grouchy are generally blamed for this battles defeat. Had the French won then you can be sure Napoleon would have claimed it as his own, therefore Napoleon must accept his ultimate defeat. Another problem of note for the French, obliged to attack, was the weather. The rain prevented their precipitate positioning of the artillery prior to their attack & delayed the onset of the fighting until late morning of the 18th. By nightfall of a very long, hard fought day the French were defeated, Bluchers' cavalry pursuing them south despite Cambronnes' memorable (Alleged) quote !
