Volume two of Ney's early career
The second volume of Bulos' account of Marshal Ney's early career is Ney: Marshal of France. It picks up the story in 1799 and concludes in 1805. Ney's star is rising and he is more and more coming to the attention of the First Consul, Napoleon Bonaparte. This volume covers the battle of Hohenlinden, his administration of Switzerland before turning to the camp at Boulogne and the preparations for the invasion of England and the subsequent campaign leading to victory at Ulm. These essential volumes for those interested in the Napoleonic epoch are available in soft back and hard cover with dust jacket for collectors.

Volume one of Ney's early career
Antoine Bulos was commissioned by Marshal Ney's family to write a comprehensive memoir of his life. All students of the Napoleonic age have visions of Ney at his most iconic-standing with a small rearguard in the snow fighting off Cossacks during the disastrous retreat from Moscow or charging bareheaded, his red hair a rallying point for all, up slopes crowned with red-coated infantry at Waterloo. These two volumes paint an entirely different portrait, concentrating as they do on Ney's early career. In volume one-Ney: General of Cavalry-we see Ney in his formative years as the consummate commander of light cavalry. This volume, culminating in 1799, reveals how the soldier won his deserved reputation for courage. Perhaps more surprisingly it shows how Ney was far from the headstrong but shallow thinker many have portrayed him to be. Here is a man of both principle and no small capacity for administration. These essential volumes for those interested in the Napoleonic epoch are available in soft back and hard cover with dust jacket for collectors.
