The Battle of Waterloo: a Military History
About This Novel
The uniqueness of "The Battle of Waterloo: A Military History" lies in the authoritativeness of historical sources, the rigor of discussion and the objectivity of conclusions. The author John Codman Ropes strives to restore the true local history of the Battle of Waterloo with a very logical and empirical discussion. What was Napoleon's operational vision in the context of the established deployment of the anti-French coalition forces? What huge hidden dangers have been laid by the reorganization of the French army and the replacement of the officer class? What did the "mixed" army teach Napoleon about his battle plans? How did the decisions of Napoleon, Arthur Wellesley, Duke of Wellington, and Rebolecht von Blücher in the Battles of Ligny, Quaterbras, and Waterloo affect the fate of the French army and the anti-French coalition? This book will explain it in detail.
