The wars between 1792 and 1815 saw the making of the modern world,
with Britain and Russia the key powers to emerge triumphant from a
long period of bitter conflict. In this innovative book, Jeremy
Black focuses on the strategic contexts and strategies involved,
explaining their significance both at the time and subsequently.
Reinterpreting French Revolutionary and Napoleonic warfare,
strategy, and their consequences, he argues that Napoleon's failure
owed much to his limitations as a strategist. Black uses this
framework as a foundation to assess the nature of warfare, the
character of strategy, and the eventual ascendance of Britain and
Russia in this period. Rethinking the character of strategy, this
is the first history to look holistically at the strategies of all
the leading belligerents from a global perspective. It will be an
essential read for military professionals, students, and history
buffs alike.
