About this product
Product Information
Spirit of the Age opens with Napoleon's as yet untested army making its way through the Bavarian Alps in the early winter of 1805, to fall upon the unsuspecting Austrians and Russians, and crushing them at Austerlitz. This was only the beginning of series of spectacular victories: over the Prussians in 1806, and then the Russians, which brought the Tsar to defeat in 1807. It follows the army into Spain, in 1808, most ill-considered step in his career as ruler, and then through the most daunting triumph of all, the final defeat of Austria at Wagram, in 1809, the bloodiest battle in European history up to that time. These five years encompass the dramas of Napoleon's separation from Josephine amid the turmoil of ruling a pan-European empire. These years also saw Napoleon navigate plots against him, his clash with the Pope and excommunication, and his loss of trust in many of those closest to him. It closes with his marriage to Marie-Louise, the daughter of his defeated enemy, the Emperor of Austria. With the greatest "trophy bride" in history on his arm, Napoleon now turns again to face his only remaining enemy, Britain, and the challenge of ruling an empire that now spans the entirety of Europe.

Reviews
Throughout the book, Broers delivers page-turning accounts of the many military engagements of the time. As in the first book, Broers provides an excellent character study of Napoleon. Readers will eagerly await the third volume., This masterly second volume of Michael Broers's biography illuminates the middle years of Napoleon's career. [Broers] brings out unforgettable details. His accounts of Napoleonic battles are suffused with the characters and psychology of their chief protagonists., Breathtaking. The best--and certainly the most original--scholar writing in this field writing in English. Broers succeeds admirably., The great strength of Broers's book arises from its detail, empathy, and even-handedness. He presents his information clearly and sometimes even lyrically. This is a serious work, the product of reflection as well as research befitting a distinguished professor of Western European History at Oxford., Offers a wonderful sense of the genius'and man'who was so stunningly able to remake European boundaries. Among the plethora of Napoleon biographies, this is immensely engaging.
