The Glory Road

HarperCollins Publishers Canada, Limited

From the acclaimed author of the unforgettable Napoleonic novels, A Dawn of Splendour and The French Fortune, comes the final story in the trilogy, One Candle Burning takes events from the end of the Egyptain campaign, when Bonaparte becomes First Consul, to the moment when he triumphantly crowns himself Emperor in the Cathedral of Notre Dame. Once more we follow his momentous career through the eyes of Marie Latour, formerly Marie Fontaine, a heroine modern in her courage and independence but totally of her time in her devotion to the spectacular hero she loves and understands better than any other woman in his lie. This enthralling story describes not only the scenes in France but also the emigre existence in London, where Charles Latour's parents fled during the Revolution and where Marie has been specially charged by Napoleon to obtain for him an engraving of Lord Nelson—an adversary for whom his admiration knows no bounds. This moving saga, combining warmth of understanding and mastery of historical detail, shows the author once more at the top of her narrative form.
