Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 475
The story of Napoleon has been written many times. In some versions, he is a military genius, in others a war-obsessed tyrant. Here, historian Adam Zamoyski cuts through the mythology and explains Napoleon against the background of the European Enlightenment and what he was himself seeking to achieve. This most famous of men is also the most hidden of men, and Zamoyski dives deeper than any previous biographer to find him. Beautifully written, Napoleon brilliantly sets the man in his European context.

Hard to find a book about Napoleon
Revisado: 02-12-22
Every Napoleon related book talks about the surroundings of Napoleon rather than Napoleon himself. The only interesting work I have found is a 1982 National Geographic article.

Little more than 200 years ago, only the most reckless or eccentric Europeans had dared traverse the unmapped territory of the modern-day Middle East. Its history and peoples were the subject of much myth and speculation: and no region aroused greater interest than Egypt.

Poor Representation of Interesting Topic
Revisado: 10-26-21
I was left unimpressed. Seems like quite an interesting topic and time in history. However, the author focuses on the logistics of the occupancy. I expected to learn about the topics the scientists and engineers explored.
