A French oriented view of Napoleon from an Englishman. colews Reading this book was really interesting for me as it contradicted things that I had been taught in my youth. I was brought up in an English biased school system, in Jamaica, and read books written by British writers. As a result my view of Napoleon has always been that he was a military genius whose genius and boundless energy was misdirected. This book contradicts that view and has motivated me to read more about him. I recommend it.. interesting but confusing penguinsreadtoo This is a good overview of Napolean's rule. The only real complaint I have is the long paragraphs, and no chapters. There are no breaks it seems. However this book originally was written a while back so part of it could just be style. Another thing is one second you feel like you're reading a history text book the next it's like historical fiction.I was pleased for the fact that I was just interested in knowing more about him but wasn't overly impressed either.
