Napoleonic Wars: The Essential Bibliography

Description

It is only in the past two decades that scholars have breached the language barrier in Germany, Austria, and Russia, permitting a comprehensive reexamination of the Napoleonic Wars. This new volume in the Essential Bibliography series examines the changing nature of Napoleonic historiography in the English-speaking world and provides the student and scholar an invaluable guide to those changes.

-Precisely defined, sharply focused, and incisively presented, Frederick Scheid's bibliography is a definitive, perceptive overview of current English-language scholarship on the military history of the Napoleonic Wars.
