    Patrick Rambaud ; translated from the French by Will Hobson
  • Publication Details

    Book, 1st American ed, Grove Press, 2000
  • Description

    Already published in France to tremendous acclaim, The Battle captures the brutality and heroism of one of the greatest battles of the nineteenth century, in which nearly 40,000 soldiers died in a mere forty-eight hours. From the lowest-ranked soldiers’ fear and their resentment at fighting Napoleon’s endless wars, to their commanders’ own hopes, doubts, and rivalries, to Napoleon’s deep insecurity about the stability of his power, Rambaud vividly portrays the experience of warfare at the height of savagery.
