Napoleon : The Emperor of Kings

Macmillan

It is 1812 when Napoleon enters Russia at the head of 500,000 men. His aim is to bring the Tsar of Russia to his knees. But nothing goes according to plan. An ocean of fire destroys Moscow. A chaos of ice and snow engulfs the Grand Army. For the first time, the Eagle bows its head. From now on, conquered Europe awakes and takes its revenge. The powerful betray him, his Old Guard weep at Fontainebleau. Does Napoleon's return from the isle of Elba herald a new 'song of departure'? The final act is nigh. But the sun of Austerlitz will not rise over the muddy plain of Waterloo. In this hugely entertaining mix of history and creativity, Max Gallo brilliantly recreates the French Emperor's fall from power and the final years of his life.

Literature & Fiction

Contemporary

<p>'What a novel my life would make!' Napoleon used to exclaim. Napoleon is thirty years old in November 1799. He has played and won. Brumaire and the Consulate have put paid to the Directory. In five years at Notre Dame, the First Consul will be crowned Emperor of France. One year after that, in the sun of Austerlitz, he will be declaring, 'Soldiers, I am happy with you!' The legendary journey has begun. Conspiracies are rife. All - or almost all - the nations want to destroy him. He must be victorious, otherwise everything will collapse. 'Conquest has made me what I am. Conquest alone can preserve me.' But for how long? Max Gallo follows Napoleon's every step, intimately revealing him in all his extraordinary intelligence and genius. Thousands of books have been written about this mythical figure, undoubtedly one of the most illustrious in the world's history. But none like this, since Max Gallo, as both historian and novelist, is able at every moment to put himself on the most intimate of footings with Napoleon and to attune his account to the very pulse of his fabulous existence.</p>
