Napoleon

Napoleon Bonaparte is one of history's greatest leaders. Famed for his outstanding success on the battlefield, which saw France become the greatest empire power since that of Rome, his enduring influence extends far beyond the military sphere, shaping the Europe we know today.

Napoleon: His Life, His Battles, His Empire includes 20 items of painstakingly researched facsimile memorabilia which give an unprecedented insight into the mind of this extraordinary man who, from modest beginnings on the small island of Corsica, became Emperor of France and its vast empire. It examines the battles which made him a legend - Marengo, Austerlitz, Jena and Wagram - and looks at his social and political reforms which revolutionized the western world.
