Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Life of Napoleon Bonaparte" in 4 volumes is a comprehensive and meticulously written biographical account of the most notable French statesman and military leader. Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) became famous as an artillery commander during the French Revolution. He led many successful campaigns during the French Revolutionary Wars and was Emperor of the French as Napoleon I from 1804 until 1814 and again briefly in 1815 during the Hundred Days. He dominated European and global affairs for more than a decade while leading France against a series of coalitions during the Napoleonic Wars. He won many of these wars and a vast majority of his battles, building a large empire that ruled over much of continental Europe before its final collapse in 1815. Napoleon is considered one of the greatest commanders in history, and his wars and campaigns are studied at military schools worldwide. His political and cultural legacy has made him one of the most celebrated and controversial leaders in human history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prezentowane w niniejszym tomie studia dotyczą wielu aspektów szeroko rozumianego roku 1812. Dotykają one problemów polityki światowej, kwestii ustrojowo-prawnych napoleońskiej Europy, a wreszcie przebiegu samego konfliktu militarnego i próby wyjaśnienia przyczyn klęski armii cesarza. Naturalnie nie przynoszą jednoznacznej odpowiedzi, dlaczego wydarzenia potoczyły się wówczas w znany nam wszystkim sposób. Zwracają jednak uwagę na wiele czynników, które musiały prowadzić do ostatecznej katastrofy Napoleona, a co za tym idzie, rozpadu jego europejskiego imperium. Badania dotyczące wojny 1812 roku, najbardziej kontrowersyjnego konfliktu tej epoki, będą kontynuowane bez wątpienia także w przyszłości, chociaż historycy są świadomi, że na niektóre pytania trudno będzie udzielić jednoznacznej odpowiedzi. Niniejszy tom ma na celu przybliżyć Czytelnikowi wybrane problemy 1812 roku, zarówno w wymiarze politycznym, jak i prawnym, ekonomicznym, wojskowym, a wreszcie z perspektywy uczestników wydarzeń.

Book excerpt: More than a third of a million men set out on that midsummer day of 1812: none can have imagined the terrors and hardships to come. They would be lured all the way to Moscow without having achieved the decisive battle Napoleon sought; and by the time they reached the city their numbers would already have dwindled by more than a third. One of the greatest disasters in military history was in the making. The fruit of more than twenty years of research, this superbly crafted work skilfully blends the memoirs and diaries of more than a hundred eyewitnesses, all of whom took part in the Grand Armys doomed march to Moscow, to reveal the inside story of this landmark military campaign. The result is a uniquely authentic account in which the reader sees and experiences the campaign through the eyes of participants at each stage of the advance in enthralling day-by-day, sometimes hour-by-hour detail.
