Story
Napoleon Bonaparte lived one of the most extraordinary of all human lives. In the space of just 20 years, from October 1795, when as a young artillery captain he cleared the streets of Paris of insurrectionists, to his final defeat at the (horribly mismanaged) battle of Waterloo in June 1815, Napoleon transformed France and Europe. After seizing power in a coup d'état, he ended the corruption and incompetence into which the revolution had descended.

Story
Benjamin Harris was a young shepherd from Dorset who joined the army in 1802 and later joined the dashing 95th Rifles. His battalion was ordered to Portugal, where he marched under the burning sun, weighed down by his kit and great-coat, plus all the tools and leather he had to carry as the battalion's cobbler—'the lapstone I took the liberty of flinging to the Devil'. Rifleman Harris was a natural storyteller with a remarkable tale to unfold, and his recollections have become one of the most popular military books of all time.

Story
No one in history has provoked more controversy than Napoleon Bonaparte. Was he an enlightened ruler or brutal tyrant? Was he an insatiable warmonger or a defender of France against the aggression of the other great powers? Was he kind or cruel, farsighted or blinkered, a sophisticate or a philistine, a builder or a destroyer? One thing is certain, if the art of leadership is about getting what one wants, then Napoleon was among history's greatest masters.

Story
Parlare di Napoleone vuol dire confrontarsi con un gigante. Come ha potuto un semplice adolescente originario della Corsica, basso, gracile, fisicamente molto ordinario, divenire, nel giro di due decenni, prima console, poi Imperatore di Francia e poi il terrore dell'Europa intera? Usando le parole di Manzoni, dalle Alpi alle Piramidi, dal Manzanarre al Reno, il dominio di Napoleone Bonaparte è stato davvero irripetibile. Come capo della Francia, per molte volte il resto d'Europa si è unito contro di lui, in innumerevoli Coalizioni.
