Book Synopsis Napoleon Quotes on Victory, Leadership and the Art of War by : Mete Aksoy
Download or read book Napoleon Quotes on Victory, Leadership and the Art of War written by Mete Aksoy and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-05 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the book was prepared, our example was Sun Tzu's "The Art of War" book. Like the timeless work of Sun Tzu, Napoleon's comments on the art of war were selected, edited and categorized.These comments are from the memories of the people who were with Napoleon until his last moments. These memories were studied and Napoleon's ideas on the art of war and leadership were selected. These selections were categorized in the sixteen chapter.Here are the 16 chapters:1.NAPOLEON ON VICTORY AND GLORY(According to Napoleon, to live without victory and glory is to die every day.)2.NAPOLEON ON BOLDNESS, AUDACITY, AND COURAGE(According to Napoleon, bold resolutions enable a commander to emerge victorious from an uneven struggle.)3.NAPOLEON ON PLANNING, PREPARATION, AND CALCULATION(According to Napoleon, the great actions must proceed from a calculation.)4.NAPOLEON ON CIRCUMSTANCES AND FLEXIBILITY(According to Napoleon, the plan must be modified according to the circumstances and therefore, a commander must be flexible!)5.NAPOLEON ON CONCENTRATION AND CENTER OF GRAVITY(According to Napoleon, a commander must concentrate his forces on a single point.)6.NAPOLEON ON COORDINATION AND COMMUNICATION(According to Napoleon, a commander must not allow corps to act separately, without communication with each other.)7.NAPOLEON ON VELOCITY AND NOT LOSING TIME(According to Napoleon, the rapidity increases the means of the victory.)8.NAPOLEON ON DECEPTION, SURPRISE AND EXAGGERATING YOUR FORCES (According to Napoleon, in war, in order to surprise an enemy, deception is a must! Also, according to Napoleon, a commander must always exaggerate the numbers of his forces.)9.NAPOLEON ON DISCIPLINE(According to Napoleon, without discipline there is no victory.)10.NAPOLEON ON DETERMINATION, CONSTANCY, AND RESOLUTION(According to Napoleon, how many things apparently impossible have nevertheless been performed by resolute men who had no alternative but death!)11.NAPOLEON ON PAYING ATTENTION TO DETAIL(According to Napoleon, the slightest circumstance decides the issue of a battle. Therefore, a commander must pay attention to details.)12.NAPOLEON ON COOL HEAD, SOUND REASONING, AND SOUND JUDGMENT(According to Napoleon, the foremost quality of a commander is to keep a cool head, to receive accurate impressions of what is happening.)13.NAPOLEON ON SIMPLICITY(According to Napoleon, the art of war is like everything that is beautiful and simple. The simplest moves are the best. )14.NAPOLEON ON INTELLIGENCE AND GETTING PRECISE INFORMATION(According to Napoleon, in order to get detailed information, a commander must study the problem from every angle. Intelligence is crucial.)15.NAPOLEON ON SECRECY(According to Napoleon, in war the first principle of a commander is to conceal what he is doing.)16.NAPOLEON ON LEADERSHIP(According to Napoleon, in war men are nothing; one man is everything. The presence of a commander is indispensable. Also, according to Napoleon, a commander is the head, the whole of an army. An army is nothing without the head.)We believe that Napoleon's these thoughts and comments on leadership and the art of war which we selected, edited and classified into 16 chapters, will lead commanders, businessmen/women, and individuals to victory when they face struggles.ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Mete Aksoy is teaching the art of war in Turkish Military Academy. He is a graduate of Mechanical Engineering and holds a master's degree in leadership at the University of San Diego (USD). He has also received courses on negotiation and leadership at Harvard University and at M.I.T.

Download or read book Napoleon written by Paul Johnson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2006-05-02 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author Paul Johnson, “a very readable and entertaining biography” (The Washington Post) about one of the most important figures in modern European history: Napoleon Bonaparte In an ideal pairing of author and subject, the magisterial historian Paul Johnson offers a vivid look at the life of the strategist, general, and dictator who conquered much of Europe. Following Napoleon from the barren island of Corsica to his early training in Paris, from his meteoric victories and military dictatorship to his exile and death, Johnson examines the origins of his ferocious ambition. In Napoleon's quest for power, Johnson sees a realist unfettered by patriotism or ideology. And he recognizes Bonaparte’s violent legacy in the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century. Napoleon is a magnificent work that bears witness to one individual's ability to work his will on history.

Book Synopsis Letters of Napoleon by : J. M. Thompson
Download or read book Letters of Napoleon written by J. M. Thompson and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-04-16 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not that all Napoleons letters, or even many of them, are of a selfrevealing kind. In youth he had few confidants in middle age he had little to confide. la the stress of business and war he soon shed the idealism of the patriot, the fatalism of the f evolutionary, and the romanticism of the lover. Any sense he may once have had of the beauty, the pathos, or even the humour of life was coarsened by flattery and success. He can still declare, exhort, abuse, persuade, even charm but always in the interest of a policy, and to gain an end. He is wise, clearsighted, eloquent, heroic but hardly ever a human being in repose. Nevertheless, Napo leons letters remain, beyond anything written about him, or anything else he wrote or said about himself, by far his finest portrait. When he was a young man, Napoleon wrote in the rapid and already confused hand of the relatively rare letters signed Buonaparte or Bonaparte. With growing age and work, his handwriting became so slovenly as to be wellnigh illegible whilst his signature shortened from Napoleon to Napol., Nap., Np., and N. Though he still wrote some private letters, and the more important military and diplomatic despatches, he habitually employed secretaries, and carried on the bulk of his correspondence by dictation. Napoleon had three principal secretaries Bourrienne 1797-1802, Meneval 1802-13, and Fain 1806-14. All of them wrote Memoirs, and there is no lack of evidence as to how their work was done. In a rather unkind conversation at St. Helena, Napoleon said that Bourrienne wrote a good hand, and was active, tireless, and patriotic, but that he was a gambler, whose face lit up when his master dictated any thing dealing with big figures: he was in fact dismissed for becoming involved in financial speculation. His work was done partly at the Luxembourg, and partly at the Tuileries. In his Memoirs he describes Napoleons appear ance, dress, and habits in minute detail. From breakfast at 10 to dinner at 5 every hour was taken up with reading petitions, correcting letters, giving interviews, or attending meetings.

In 1812 his unit took part in the crossing of the Niemen and the epic retreat from Moscow.In his extraordinary memoirs Brandt describes in great detail the actions in which he fought, the type of officers and men he served with, and the grueling campaigns in which they participated.

Book Synopsis Napoleon the Great by : Andrew Roberts
Download or read book Napoleon the Great written by Andrew Roberts and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2016-05-27 with total page 832 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Andrew Roberts, author of the Sunday Times bestseller The Storm of War, this is the definitive modern biography of Napoleon It has become all too common for Napoleon Bonaparte's biographers to approach him as a figure to be reviled, bent on world domination, practically a proto-Hitler. Here, after years of study extending even to visits paid to St Helena and 53 of Napoleon's 56 battlefields, Andrew Roberts has created a true portrait of the mind, the life, and the military and above all political genius of a fundamentally constructive ruler. This is the Napoleon, Roberts reminds us, whose peacetime activity produced countless indispensable civic innovations - and whose Napoleonic Code provided the blueprint for civil law systems still in use around the world today. It is one of the greatest lives in world history, which here has found its ideal biographer. The sheer enjoyment which this book will give anyone who loves history is enormous.

Download or read book In Napoleon's Words written by Napoleon Bonaparte and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flash of Napoleon Bonaparte's sword so blinded men in his lifetime, and, indeed, long after, that they were unable to distinguish a second weapon in his hand. The clearer vision which time and study bring have shown that he used words almost as effectively as the sword, and that throughout his career the address ably supported the military manoeuvre. Between these pages Napoleon's official life can be traced in detail from Toulon to St. Helena. The most important documents which he wrote relating to public affairs is printed in the collection. Across the pages of this book the mighty procession of soldiers and generals, priests and cardinals, kings and peoples who, in the twenty years in which Napoleon was the preeminent figure of Europe, fell captive to his charms or his power. Here are the words by which he fired starving armies to battle, bullied obstinate powers to follow his plans, put hope into despot-ridden people, told kings their duties. Contents: Part I. The Campaign in Italy Part II. The Egyptian Expedition Part III. Napoleon, First Consul Part IV. Napoleon, Emperor of France Part V. The Fall of Napoleon Napoleon's Will
