Napoleon's Marshals

Rating:
Summary: An necessary item for the Napoleonic collection!
Review: Chandler and the various authors have compiled a compelling collection of the biographies of the 26 Marshals of the Empire. These were Napoleon's lieutenants and a greater variety of men one will never find. From the brilliant Davout, Suchet and Lannes to the brave Ney and Oudinot to the loathsome Bernadotte and pillaging Massena. All great men in their own way and certainly worth reading about. A book well worth adding to the collection. Amazon's site says the hardcover is out of print yet I have seen a new softcover version making its appearance.
