UFFINDELL Andrew, Napoleon 1814: The Defence of France


<i>© Pen & Sword</i>

© Pen & Sword

Description:  
From the publishers:
In 1814, after two successive years of defeat in Russia and central Europe, Napoleon was faced with the ultimate disaster - an Allied invasion of France itself. The conduct of the intense, fast-moving campaign that followed has been widely hailed as one of his greatest feats as a commander, yet it has rarely been described fully and objectively. Andrew Uffindell, in this study, reconstructs the campaign, reassesses Napoleon's military leadership and provides an account of a campaign that helped shape modern Europe.

Napoleon.org also has a review of the book written by independent scholar Thomas Zacharis.

Place and publisher: Pen & Sword

Date of publication: 2009
