IN AUGUST 1805, Napoleon abandoned his plans for the invasion of Britain and diverted his army to the Danube Valley to confront Austrian and Russian forces in a bid for control of central Europe. The campaign culminated with the Battle of Austerlitz, regarded by many as Napoleon’s greatest triumph, whose far-reaching effects paved the way for French hegemony on the Continent for the next decade. In this concise volume, acclaimed military historian Gregory Fremont-Barnes uses detailed profiles to explore the leaders, tactics and weaponry of the clashing French, Austrian and Russian forces. Packed with fact boxes, maps and more, Napoleon’s Greatest Triumph is the perfect way to explore this important battle and the rise of Napoleon’s reputation as a supreme military leader.

"Napoleon's Elite, "originally published as In Flight "with the Eagle, "by Raymond Horricks, is a detailed guide to the many hundreds of people who immediately surrounded the Emperor, the magic inner circle of marshals and near-marshals, members of Napoleon's administration, his often treacherous family, wives, and mistresses, and members of his household staff. Napoleon's Elite presents a tightly woven tapestry of those who surrounded and were important to this most intriguing of leaders. Horricks charts the Emperor's progress and provides the historical backdrop within which we can place the "elite. "In his new introduction, he describes the many qualities he finds admirable in Napoleon, as well as the negative aspects of Napoleon's character. Written as a companion volume to "Military Politics from Bonaparte to the Bourbons, "Horricks's Napoleon's Elite is a rich source of anecdotes and memoirs, providing sharp and telling insights into the personality of this complex yet truly remarkable man. It will be of interest to historians, political scientists, and students of military affairs.
