A compact guide to the Napoleonic Wars.
This outstandingly vivid and accessible book, written by one of Britain's leading historians, provides the essential overview of Napoleon's career.
Beginning in revolutionary France with a brilliant young Lieutenant who still styled himself Napoleone di Buonaparte, Holmes examines every facet of his subject's military career: his astonishing victories at the Battle of the Pyramids, Marengo, Jena and Austerlitz, through to defeat and exile under the immense weight of the great powers who were determined to stop the man who would be emperor of Europe.
