Description

"History is a Set of Lies Agreed Upon" is a collection of biographical sketches of the French military and political leader Napoleon Bonaparte, by various authors.

Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821) was a French political and military leader during the Revolutionary Wars who ruled as Emperor of the French from 1804 until 1814, and again in 1815.

Winning the vast amount of battles against a series of coalitions in the Napoleonic Wars, he was able to establish a large empire covering continental Europe that lasted until its collapse in 1815.

Napoleon is regarded as being among the greatest military commanders in history, and is still a celebrated yet controversial political figure.

These fascinating biographical sketches offer details on various aspects of Napoleon's life, from his early military campaigns to the women who had most influence of his life.

Highly recommended for those with an interest in the life of Napoleon Bonaparte and European history in general.
