The Decline and Fall of Napoleon

Garnet Wolseley

4.9/5 (20755 ratings)

Description:The Napoleon in power in later years may have lacked the absolute genius and resolution that his earlier campaigns displayed; however, he was more than a match for his enemies on more than one occasion. Field-Marshal Wolseley’s short biography of Wellington begins in 1812, following the travails of Napoleon as he and the few survivors of the La Grande Armée trudged back from the Russian snows. As Napoleon feverishly combs depots for recruits, and conscripts more men for his army, he takes the fight to the Allies in Germany. But outnumbered, and demanding the impossible from his generals and troops, he is heavily defeated by the Allied forces. Pushed back to the borders of France, Napoleon contrives his finest campaign since the early Italian campaigns that gained him his fame. However, the number of allied forces eventually pushed him back, forcing his abdication and banishment to Elba. In the final throw of the dice, Napoleon returns to France and, despite some of his finest manoeuvring, is finally defeated at the battle of Waterloo.“An admirable monograph, by the new Commander-in-Chief of the Forces,…giving in a crisp resume the last half of the career of Napoleon, … Limited by space, there is yet a well-digested mass within these covers, clearly collated and tersely expressed…”-Theodore Aryault DodgeWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
