The book and the website enable you to be part of the jury that decides whether Captain Siborne is guilty or innocent of the charges made against him by more recent historians.

The evidence from both sides is presented to you with photographic evidence and analysis of the day’s events. But it is you who will decide (and you who will vote on this website) as to his guilt or innocence.

You will no doubt recognise three of the above portraits. They are of Wellington, Blucher and Napoleon. The fourth is Captain Siborne, historian, model maker and most controversial of all historians who wrote about the great battle of Waterloo.

The controversy concerns the question posed above – Who Won Waterloo? Siborne made his models and wrote his history on the battle, which placed the reader in no doubt that it was Wellington who defeated Napoleon with the assistance of Blucher and his Prussian army. More recent research has questioned this position. These claim that it was Blucher and the Prussians who delivered the crushing blow to Napoleon’s army. It was they who won the battle saving Wellington from defeat at the hands of the French.

This is now your chance to read the various versions of what happened at Waterloo and to see for yourself, from a new model, each stage of the battle so that you can contribute and decide who actually won the battle and what most probably happened on the 18th June 1815 on a battlefield called Waterloo.
