1.On WarOn War
from Wilder Publications
Price: $9.49

Customer Review:
I don't mind amazon being enterprising, but it constitutes a form of fraud ("bait and switch") to redirect those attempting to find a Kindle version of the Princeton University Press, Peter Paret and Michael Howard edition of On War to this edition. Please stop this practice: the books are not... more info

Customer Review:
Nina Burleigh's, Mirage: Napoleon's Scientists and the Unveiling of Egypt (HarperCollins, 2007) is a historical non-fiction book about Napoleon's occupation of Egypt.

from Tantor Media
Price: $37.66

Customer Review:
Having read various biographies of Napoleon, including this one, I think some of the negative reviewers perhaps need to go back and look at this book again.
Firstly, this is a book primarily concerned with Napoleon's diplomatic and political relations, rather than his military or administrative... more info

from Vintage
Price: $9.65

Customer Review:
Neither textbook nor narrative, Hobsbawm's classic is an interpretive essay whose many insights, expressed in memorable style, continue to stimulate and inspire. He abandoned Stalinism long ago, and his nuanced Marxism sympathizes with workers, peasants and rebels, which still seems to provoke some... more info

6.The War for All the Oceans: From Nelson at the Nile to Napoleon at WaterlooThe War for All the Oceans: From Nelson at the Nile to Napoleon at Waterloo
from Penguin (Non-Classics)
Price: $6.26

Customer Review:
I'm up to page 346 now, the year is 1809, and this history of the naval war against Napolean has yet to mention the shipboard mutinies at Spithead and the Nore which occured in 1797. I referred to Spithead in the index, and the last page to mention it was page 285. The Nore is not listed in the... more info

from W.W. Norton & Co.
Price: $19.93

Customer Review:
It never ceases to surprise me how many books about the Royal Navy during the Napoleonic Wars are written. It seems as though very little time goes by without another book being published. Happily, most are very good, and the reader is seldom let down.
"The Line Upon a Wind" is yet another good... more info

This book was an insightful exploration into the character and conduct of one of the principle champions in the effort to stop Napoleon's belligerent regime--Lord Horatio Nelson.
