Napoleon Bonaparte lived one of the most extraordinary of all human lives. In the space of just twenty years, from October 1795 when as a young artillery captain he cleared the streets of Paris of insurrectionists, to his final defeat at the (horribly mismanaged) battle of Waterloo in June 1815, Napoleon transformed France and Europe. After seizing power in a coup d'état he ended the corruption and incompetence into which the Revolution had descended. In a series of dazzling battles he reinvented the art of warfare; in peace, he completely remade the laws of France, modernised her systems of education and administration, and presided over a flourishing of the beautiful 'Empire style' in the arts. The impossibility of defeating his most persistent enemy, Great Britain, led him to make draining and ultimately fatal expeditions into Spain and Russia, where half a million Frenchmen died and his Empire began to unravel.
More than any other modern biographer, Andrew Roberts conveys Napoleon's tremendous energy, both physical and intellectual, and the attractiveness of his personality, even to his enemies. He has walked 53 of Napoleon's 60 battlefields, and has absorbed the gigantic new French edition of Napoleon's letters, which allows a complete re-evaluation of this exceptional man. He overturns many received opinions, including the myth of a great romance with Josephine: she took a lover immediately after their marriage, and, as Roberts shows, he had three times as many mistresses as he acknowledged.
Of the climactic Battle of Leipzig in 1813, as the fighting closed around them, a French sergeant-major wrote, 'No-one who has not experienced it can have any idea of the enthusiasm that burst forth among the half-starved, exhausted soldiers when the Emperor was there in person. If all were demoralised and he appeared, his presence was like an electric shock. All shouted "Vive l'Empereur!" and everyone charged blindly into the fire.'
The reader of this biography will understand why this was so.

評分會打仗還會政治的人確實少之又少(比如華盛頓), 拿破侖很顯然不是其中的一個.

他的想法是十八世纪晚期的老生常谈-精确地说,是以激进的威权方式诠释启蒙的老生常谈。他将自己年轻时代的流行文化铭记在心。有一段时间,崇拜卢梭;他曾尝试写一本以艾塞克斯伯爵为主角的英式哥德小说;......他与许多启蒙哲士一样,仰慕身兼哲学家,军人与统治者的腓特烈大帝...
評分这两本书千页,我看了足足有两遍,基本可以和大家聊聊了。 个人对这套书内容诚意打8分,不能再高了,加上装帧也就8.3分。 首先,从阅读体验来说,文采方面,首尾部分(少年时,中老年时)比较出彩流畅度较好,中间部分略显冗长,而且因为评论远多于描述,风流韵事多于战事描写...

評分 評分皇帝戎马一生与勤勉治国的战绩政绩自不必说,但是悲剧英雄也格外吸引人。皇帝的最终失败,是众多因素共同作用的结果: 底层贵族或小资产阶级出身,可用之人时有,但心腹无多,过于倚重亲属及部分有才无德的下属导致政权结构不稳,政治根基过于浅薄; 在一次次的传奇胜利后将机...
