What is Napoleon : the final verdict : a new assessment of the Emperor about?
Two centuries after the zenith of Napoleon's career, a skilled team of military historians reassesses the Emperor's triumphs and failures. These reports cover the early victories that consolidated much of Europe under his command; his years of governance and affairs of state; his decline into reckless adventurism and defeat, abdication and exile; his astonishing return to power, his climactic defeat at the battle of Waterloo; and his death on St. Helena. Some studies focus on his tactical strengths and weaknesses, and others on his political abilities, while still others compare him with the enemies he fought, and analyze the lasting impact of his vision of life and philosophy of the state. The experts shed new-light on the age-old question: Was he a flawed genius or a tragic figure? After searching through the incredible abundance of material and perspectives here, it is up to you to maintain or review your point of view, and come to a final verdict.
