Napoleon Bonaparte and battles (Complete Battle records of Napoleon)
Complete Battle records of Napoleon Bonaparte
The military career of Napoleon Bonaparte spanned over 20
years. As emperor, he led the French Armies in the Napoleonic Wars. He is
widely regarded as a military genius and one of the finest commanders in world
history. He fought more than 70 battles, losing only eight, mostly at the
end. The great French dominion collapsed
rapidly after the disastrous invasion of Russia in 1812. Napoleon was defeated
in 1814; he returned and was finally defeated in 1815 at Waterloo. He spent his
remaining days in British custody in the remote island of St. Helena.
