Revolution Quartet

review 1: To put this simply, the four books that comprise the 'Revolution' quartet are a parallel biography of Napoleon Bonaparte, (the corsican who almost made us all learn French), and The Duke of Wellington, (who was Irish and is credited with preventing that outcome). Neither is a very nice person. The books and the story are among the best I've ever read, fiction or non-fiction. Each is the size of a very thick brick, so resign yourself to a long and enjoyable journey. But Books for the Beach they're not, unless you're on a very, very long holiday.
review 2: This is the finale of a quartet of books that I found spellbinding. Simon Scarrow is a superbe author, and these books are basically history books written as novels. I would highly recommend them, but do star... moret at the beginning with 'Young Bloods'.The main thing I learnt from this book was that the French did not surrender at Waterloo, but continued the fight back to Paris before finally admitting defeat, and Napoleon giving himself up to the Royal Navy. less
