30-second Napoleon : the 50 fundamentals of his life, strategies and legacy, each explained in half a minute
2019
Books
Almost two centuries since his death, Napoleon Bonaparte remains the subject of vigorous debate. On one side are those with a romantic attachment to ideals of liberty and democracy, on the other are those who would rather see him as an ambitious warlord, bent on establishing a colonial empire in the heart of Europe. This book takes in both viewpoints, presenting an engrossing introduction to one of the most recognisable figures in history and one of extraordinary interest whichever point of view you take, romantic or pragmatic.
