I became fascinated with Captain Thomas Backhouse while researching the history of Havenfields, a large country house on the outskirts of Great Missenden in Buckinghamshire, where I have been privileged to work and stay for the past 20 years. The more information I found about him the more intrigued I became, discovering a forgotten soldier lost in the annals of 18th century history. This account of Captain Backhouse has been put together by the author from documented historical events and copy letters held at The British Library and The National Archives.
