Napoleon dominated nearly all of Europe by 1810, largely
succeeding in his aim to reign over the civilized world. But
Britain eluded him. To conquer the island nation, he needed
Russia's Tsar Alexander's help. The Tsar refused, and Napoleon
vowed to teach him a lesson by intimidation and force. The ensuing
invasion of Russia, during the frigid winter of 1812, would mark
the beginning of the end of Napoleon's empire. Although his army
captured Moscow after a brutal march deep into hostile territory,
it was a hollow victory for the demoralized troops. Napoleon's men
were eventually turned back, and their defeat was a momentous
turning point in world affairs. Dramatic, insightful, and
enormously absorbing, Moscow 1812 is a masterful work of
history.
