Russia Against
Napoleon
£12.15
In the summer of 1812 Napoleon the master of Europe marched into Russia with the largest army ever assembled confident that he would sweep everything before him. Yet less than two years later his empire lay in ruins & Russia had triumphed. This is the first history to explore in depth Russias crucial role in the Napoleonic Wars re-creating the epic battle between two empires as never before. Dominic Lieven writes with great panache & insight to describe from the Russians viewpoint how they went from retreat defeat & the burning of Moscow to becoming the new liberators of Europe; the consequences of which could not have been more important. Ultimately this book shows memorably & brilliantly Russia embarking on its strange central role in Europes existence as both threat & protector
- a role that continues in all its complexity into our own lifetimes.
