Napoleon and the invasion of Enlgand: the story of the Great Terror

 
From the publishers:
First published in 1908, this is an in-depth study of the period 1797-1805, when the threat of a French invasion of England reached it height. It was a danger which dominated the thoughts and conversations of the English population to such an extent that the period was to become known as the 'Great Terror'. This comprehensive account traces the progress of Napoleon's plans of conquest from their earliest stages in 1793 through to his defeat at the Battle of Trafalgar and the final collapse of the invasion plans in 1805. The authors' inclusion of contemporary letters, prints and illustrations makes this a thorough exploration of a pivotal period in European history.
