Napoleon and His Marshalls
By A.G. Macdonnell
Napoleon created twenty-six Marshals. The narrative of this book is wound around these men, their inter-personal relationships, their triumphs, their constant bickering and their eventual failure. With Marshal jostling with Marshal for power and influence, A.G. Macdonell’s stylish account is as much a study of human drama as it is a work of military history.
For fans of Andrew Roberts, Bernard Cornwell and Simon Sebag Montefiore.
