June 18, 1815, was one of the most momentous days in world
history, marking the end of twenty-two years of French
Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. On the bloody battlefield of
Waterloo, the Emperor Napoleon and his hastily formed legions
clashed with the Anglo-Allied armies led by the Duke of Wellington
-- the only time the two greatest military strategists of their age
faced each other in combat.
With precision and elegance, Andrew Roberts sets the political,
strategic, and historical scene, providing a breathtaking account
of each successive stage of the battle while also examining new
evidence that reveals exactly how Napoleon was defeated.
Illuminating, authoritative, and engrossing, "Waterloo" is a
masterful work of history.
