Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Napoleon's Navigation System: A Study of Trade Control During, the Continental Blockade Historians, romancers, and tacticians for a century have been telling of the meteoric career of the Corsican and the general ship of the Little Corporal. Disproportionately little attention has been given, meanwhile, to studying the many-sided statesman ship of Bonaparte, the F irst Consul, and of Napoleon, Emperor of the F rench. Happily recent years have seen a growing ten deney to a juster emphasis upon the governmental policies and institutional developments of the Napoleonic regime. Par ticularly is this true of the manifold aspects of social and economic polity. Rare indeed, and like voices crying in the wilderness, had been they who spoke with authority upon such topics prior to 1890. Then came the work of men like Admiral Mahan in America, J. Holland Rose in England, Lumbroso in Italy, and especially scholars like M. Charles Schmidt of the French National Archives, and Prof. Paul Darmstaedter of Germany, to whose pioneering labors are due numerous investigations in the field during the past decade.

Download or read book Napoleon written by Frank McLynn and published by Skyhorse Publishing Inc.. This book was released on 2011 with total page 1073 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Author McLynn explores the Promethean legend from his Corsican roots, through the chaotic years of the French Revolution and his extraordinary military triumphs, to the coronation in 1804, to his fatal decision in 1812 to add Russia to his seemingly endless conquests, and his ultimate defeat, imprisonment, and death in Saint Helena. McLynn aptly reveals the extent to which Napoleon was both existential hero and plaything of fate, mathematician and mystic, intellectual giant and moral pygmy, great man and deeply flawed human being.

Download or read book Napoleon written by Andrew Roberts and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2014-11-04 with total page 1034 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive biography of the great soldier-statesman by the New York Times bestselling author of The Storm of War—winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Biography and the Grand Prix of the Fondation Napoleon Austerlitz, Borodino, Waterloo: his battles are among the greatest in history, but Napoleon Bonaparte was far more than a military genius and astute leader of men. Like George Washington and his own hero Julius Caesar, he was one of the greatest soldier-statesmen of all times. Andrew Roberts’s Napoleon is the first one-volume biography to take advantage of the recent publication of Napoleon’s thirty-three thousand letters, which radically transform our understanding of his character and motivation. At last we see him as he was: protean multitasker, decisive, surprisingly willing to forgive his enemies and his errant wife Josephine. Like Churchill, he understood the strategic importance of telling his own story, and his memoirs, dictated from exile on St. Helena, became the single bestselling book of the nineteenth century. An award-winning historian, Roberts traveled to fifty-three of Napoleon’s sixty battle sites, discovered crucial new documents in archives, and even made the long trip by boat to St. Helena. He is as acute in his understanding of politics as he is of military history. Here at last is a biography worthy of its subject: magisterial, insightful, beautifully written, by one of our foremost historians.

Download or read book Eighteen Hundred and Eleven written by E. J. Clery and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2017-06-09 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1811 England was on the brink of economic collapse and revolution. The veteran poet and campaigner Anna Letitia Barbauld published a prophecy of the British nation reduced to ruins by its refusal to end the interminable war with France, titled Eighteen Hundred and Eleven. Combining ground-breaking historical research with incisive textual analysis, this new study dispels the myth surrounding the hostile reception of the poem and takes a striking episode in Romantic-era culture as the basis for exploring poetry as a medium of political protest. Clery examines the issues at stake, from the nature of patriotism to the threat to public credit, and throws new light on the views and activities of a wide range of writers, including radical, loyalist and dissenting journalists, Coleridge, Wordsworth, Southey, and Barbauld herself. Putting a woman writer at the centre of the enquiry opens up a revised perspective on the politics of Romanticism.
