The Napoleonic Wars
Holmes, Richard, 1946-20112019
Book
Napoleon was the colossus of his age. He rose to become one of revolutionary France's most successful generals, before being crowned Emperor in December 1804. Over the next eight years he fought a series of campaigns, defeating all his continental rivals, though his inability to take command of the sea prevented him from beating Britain. These campaigns became known as the Napoleonic Wars and this book tells the story.
