First published in 1995 to great critical acclaim, The Wars of
Napoleon provides students with a comprehensive survey of the
Napoleonic Wars around the central theme of the scale of French
military power and its impact on other European states, from
Portugal to Russia and from Scandinavia to Sicily. The book
introduces the reader to the rise of Napoleon and the wider
diplomatic and political context before analysing such subjects as
how France came to dominate Europe; the impact of French conquest
and the spread of French ideas; the response of European powers;
the experience of the conflicts of 1799-1815 on such areas of the
world as the West Indies, India and South America; the reasons why
Napoleon's triumph proved ephemeral; and the long-term impact of
the period. This second edition has been revised throughout to
include a completely re-written section on collaboration and
resistance, a new chapter on the impact of the Napoleonic Wars in
the wider world and material on the various ways in which women
became involved in, or were affected by, the conflict. Thoroughly
updated and offering students a view of the subject that challenges
many preconceived ideas, The Wars of Napoleon remains an essential
resource for all students of the French Revolutionary Wars as well
as students of European and military history during this period.
