Campaigns of Napoleon

By David Chandler

 

The foremost modern expert on the Napoleonic Wars, David Chandler, has put his huge amount of knowledge into more than 1100 pages that detail every battle and campaign Napoleon fought.

Detailed to the max but never turgid, Campaigns follows the marches of Napoleon's armies as they fight from Italy, to Egypt, to Russia, to Waterloo.

Filled with maps, cartoons, pictures and graphics, this massive work covers the broad sweep of the era.

Available in hard and soft cover, the advice is to spend more up front and get the "permanent" edition.
