Excellent detail and research. A splendid reference for anyone studying this period. ( )

An excellent book, the maps are very good, though not quite up to the quality of David chandler's "Napoleon". An excellent selection of maps however, and the text is clear and workmanlike. There's not much of controversy in this book, but the facts are here. If you can't get the Chandler "Napoleon", use this book as the spine of your collection. ( )

Superb for the student who wants to follow the strategies and tactics of the major campaigns and battles of the Napoleonic Wars. Read Chandler's Campaigns of Napoleon with this book open as well for a true treat. ( )
