Andrew Roberts: Napoleon and his marshals

The twenty-six men Napoleon promoted, and the two who were still with him at Waterloo.

Lecture / talkHistoryBooks & writers

At Royal Geographical Society.

Napoleon created the Marshalate immediately after his coronation in 1804 and filled it with his best generals - Ney, Murat, Massena, Davout, Berthier. Andrew Roberts, who wrote the standard one-volume life, follows what he did with them over the next decade: the campaigns they won for him, the rivalries he encouraged, the loyalty he manipulated, and why so few of them were left at the end. Presented by the How To Academy. From £34.95.
