In a definitive biography of the mythic general who refused to accept Nazi domination of France, Julian Jackson captures this titanic figure as never before. Drawing on unpublished letters, memoirs, and resources of the recently opened de Gaulle archive, he reveals how this volatile visionary put a broken France back at the center of world affairs.

Commenting only on the reading
Revisado: 05-11-19
It’s so distracting to have a narrator who is so clueless as to much French pronunciation. The producer seems to have assumed that because Mr. Adams has down the difficult French “r,” he was up to the task. He mangles most vowels. He has a wonderful voice and would be fabulous narrating, say, Dickens or Trollope.

Andrew Roberts' 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.

Reading of excellent history marred imperfect French pronunciation
Revisado: 05-22-17
The book is excellent, a half-hour into this 33-hour reading, the narrator's poor French pronunciation really began to grate.
