Napoleon Bonaparte
For almost two decades, Napoleon Bonaparte was the most powerful man in Europe. In one of the most remarkable rags-to-riches stories of all time, he had risen from obscure origins in Corsica to become Emperor of France.
The great nations of Europe repeatedly combined their forces against him, only for them to be thwarted each time by the revolutionary general and his Grande Armee. However, the tables were turned on Napoleon when, in 1812, he invaded Russia where his army of more than half-a-million men perished in the unbearable cold.
That, though, was not the end of this remarkable story, which was to end on the battlefields of Waterloo. This 100-page special publication details the incredible rise and fall of one of the greatest military leaders in history.
