Description

THE GREATEST OF BATTLES

The defining military engagement of the nineteenth century. The epic battle that forever ended one man's dreams of a European empire unified under his rule.

THE GREATEST OF RIVALS

This epoch-defining conflict would ultimately be remembered for the showdown between two of history's most legendary commanders: the Duke of Wellington, and Napoleon Bonaparte.

THE DEFINITIVE ACCOUNT

Divided into three parts, Christopher Hibbert masterfully depicts first Napoleon and his rise to power, then a portrait of Wellington and the allied armies, and lastly the steps leading up to and the battle itself, the final clash on the fields of Waterloo.

A gripping, succinct and panoramic survey of this legendary battle, the history surrounding the conflict, and the personalities that defined both the battle itself, and a generation.
