EVENT DETAILS

Napoleon Bonaparte’s victories at Austerlitz, Jena, and Friedland helped forge his status as a military genius and inspiring leader, yet he has also been likened to Adolf Hitler. After the publication of 33,000 of Napoleon’s letters, award-winning historian Andrew Roberts radically transforms our understanding of the character and motivation behind one of the greatest soldier-statesmen of all time.

Andrew Roberts, a Fellow of the Napoleonic Institute, is the award-winning author and editor of twelve books, including The Storm of War and, most recently, Napoleon: A Life.
