Bibliography

In 1859, at the time of the Orsini case, Shaw Kennedy wrote an essay on The Defence of Great Britain and Ireland and in 1860 he wrote a brief autobiography. In 1863 he wrote his famous Notes on Waterloo, appended to which was a Plan for the defence of Canada. All were published in 1865. He was the first historian of the Battle of Waterloo to divide the battle into five distinct but interrelated parts: a framework of the battle which was later to be used by other historians.
