It is also the only genui...

    NAPOLEON, FRANCE AND WATERLOO
    CHARLES ESDAILE
    So great is the weight of reading on the subject of the Waterloo campaign that it might be thought there is nothing left to say about it, and from the military viewpoint, this is very much the case. But one critical aspect of the story has gone all but untold the French home front. Little has been written about the topic in English, and few works on Napoleon or Revolutionary an...
