Next to Andrew Roberts' brilliant biography, which has many more profound insights into Napoleon's military operations, Adam Zamoyski's comparably sized--though very readable major biography--focuses more on Napoleon's personality and human factors against the military background.
Roberts himself calls this Exceptional work "hugely readable, highly enjoyable and well-balanced."
AS NEW Condition: tight, bright, clean copy in comparable unclipped dust jacket. No previous ownership or other markings.
