Read about this remarkable period of European history in The French Revolution and the rise of Napoleon.

Book Synopsis The Crucible of Revolutionary and Napoleonic Warfare and European Transitions to Modern Economic Growth by : Patrick Karl O'Brien
Download or read book The Crucible of Revolutionary and Napoleonic Warfare and European Transitions to Modern Economic Growth written by Patrick Karl O'Brien and published by Library of Economic History. This book was released on 2021-12-17 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Historiographically, this book rests on the fact that European transitions to modern economic growth were obstructed and promoted by the Revolution in France and 15 years of geopolitical conflict sustained by Napoleon in order to establish French Hegemony over the states and economies of Britain, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Portugal, and overseas commerce. The chapters reveal that the nature and significance of connections between geopolitical and economic forces lend coherence to a collaborative endeavour utilising comparative methods to address a mega question: What might be plausibly concluded about the economic costs and the benefits of this protracted conjuncture of Revolutionary and Napoleonic Warfare?"--

Download or read book The Rise of Napoleon Bonaparte written by Scott Ratcliff and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2023-12-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Comprehensive Look at The Story of Napoleon Bonaparte's Ascent and DownfallDiscover How the Brilliant French Emperor Won Europe and Lost Everything Follow the meteoric rise and fall of Napoleon Bonaparte, one of history's greatest military strategists and leaders. This expansive work chronicles Napoleon's origins as a young French artillery officer during the turbulent times of the French Revolution to his days of conquest as Emperor to his ultimate defeat and exile. Beginning with Napoleon's crucial role in the Siege of Toulon and his famous "Whiff of Grapeshot" stand during an armed uprising in Paris, the book then takes you through his bold campaigns against Austria, Egypt, and other European powers. With dynamic battle narratives, you'll relive Napoleon's masterful victories at Marengo and his crowning triumph at Austerlitz as he establishes his legendary reputation as a military commander. But the seeds of Napoleon's demise were sown as his ambition drove him to overextend himself with the disastrous invasion of Russia and the nightmare of occupation during the Peninsular War. As Napoleon's empire becomes overstrained, the book builds to the fateful Battle of Leipzig and a continent turning against him, culminating in his final forced abdication and banishment. This complete military biography provides an intimate understanding of the visions of glory, reckless decisions, and eventual ruin of one of history's most towering and enigmatic figures. Perfect for fans of character-driven history, it's a front row seat to the dramatic spectacle of Napoleon's rise and fall.

Book Synopsis The Rise and Fall of Napoleon Bonaparte by : Robert B. Asprey
Download or read book The Rise and Fall of Napoleon Bonaparte written by Robert B. Asprey and published by Time Warner Books UK. This book was released on 2001 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since his untimely death aged fifty-one in 1821, Napoleon Bonaparte has been too often the victim of biographical revisionism that treats him either as a demi-god or as devil incarnate. In the first of this monumental new two-volume biography, Robert Asprey has preferred to treat him as a human being. The Rise and Fall of Napoleon (Volume 1: The Rise) chronicles the beginning of this most extraordinary of lives, from Napoleon's birth in 1769 to the historic Battle of Austerlitz in 1805, when he brilliantly defeated the Austro-Russian armies. What emerges is both a fascinating and contradictory figure: a child of the French Revolution who grew to be its master; who exploited the national will for what he believed to be the national good; who converted the surging passions of thirty million persons into an irresistible force to challenge and often topple archaic thrones; whose desire for European reforms ultimately fell victim to feudal superstition and misery. Based on years of research, Robert Asprey tells this remarkable tale with the even-handedness such a major historical figure deserves. He presents Napoleon as he was - a man dedicated to his vision of himself and his empire.

Book Synopsis The Growth of Napoleon by : Norwood Young
Download or read book The Growth of Napoleon written by Norwood Young and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Growth of Napoleon: A Study in Environment The chief authorities for the youth of Napoleon are "Napoleon Inconnu," by Masson and Biagi; "La Jeunesse de Napoleon," by A. Chuquet; "La Genese de Napoleon," by J. B. Marcaggi; "Les Bonapartes et leurs Alliances," by L. Brotonne; "Le Nid de l'Aigle," by Colonna de Cesare Rocca. To these writers I desire to express the fullest acknowledgment. Without their assistance it would have been impossible to complete this work, which is the first original study in English of the influence of his environment upon the growth of Napoleon. The subject has not been more than touched upon in any language. The most important of these sources is Masson's great pioneer work. With it was incorporated in the first edition a transcript from the manuscripts of Napoleon, which have been placed in the Laurentinian Library at Florence by the Italian Government, who bought them from Lord Ashburnham. Commendatore Biagi, the eminent librarian, has undertaken the task of deciphering Napoleon's handwriting, a labour of no ordinary character. He has done it so well that there is small probability that any second version will ever be attempted. I have to thank him for his kindness to me, and for the facilities given me to examine the precious originals. Most of these youthful writings of Napoleon, together with a number of his early letters, which are also to be found in "Napoleon Inconnu," have not hitherto been translated into English.
