On War: The Art of Battle and Strategy – Complete Work, Organized and Commented by Bruno Colson

Discover the unparalleled military experience of one of the most famous and successful leaders in world history. Napoleon Bonaparte is recognized as one of the greatest strategists of all time. His mastery of battles and his ability to mobilize armies revolutionized the art of war. In addition to winning nearly all fifty of the pitched battles he waged, he was an important state administrator. Much of his civil code, based on the precepts of the French Revolution, remains in force in France to this day. However, Bonaparte never wrote an organized work on war and strategy. Specialist Bruno Colson was responsible for bringing together, for the first time, all of Napoleon's writings—letters, oral histories annotated by memoirists, and unpublished works found in archives—to create an original book that reveals the French emperor's greatest qualities.
