Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The military campaigns of Napoleon form one of the most significant episodes of modern world history. The Dictionary of the Napoleonic Wars is a complete, concise reference work which covers all the warring nations, their important soldiers, sailors, strategies, armaments and the battles that shaped Napoleon's career.The book includes much fascinating material - the brilliant campaigns that Napoleon himself commanded, as well as related events such as the Peninsular War and the American War of 1812. There are portraits of hundreds of noteworthy characters, and to overcome the tendency of a dictionary to fragment its subject, the author has included large-scale entries on topics of general importance from Coalitions and Coups d'Etat to the French Revolution and the Duke of Wellington.
