[edit] NAPOLEON'S COMMANDERS
Continuing the author's study of the careers, peronalities and personal uniforms of the greatest French generals and marshals of the Napoleonic Wars, this volume describes and illustrates those leaders who made their names largely in the later years of the Empire, from 1809 to 1815.
On the Napoleonic battlefield victory or defeat could still depend on the skills, reactions and personalities of individual commanders. Even under a genius such as Bonaparte the dispersal of his armies on campaign, and the lack of fast communications, left command and control of the different corps and divisions in the hands of his marshals and generals. Continuing the author's fascinating study of the careers, personalities, and personal uniforms of the greatest French marshals and generals of the Napoleonic wars, this volume describes and illustrates those leaders who made their names largely in the later years of the Empire, from c1809 to 1815. It includes leading figures such as Soult, Marmont, Murat, Espagne and Sucher.
