Publisher: The Emperor's Press: c. £22.00 Napoleon's Generals unfortunately first saw light under the fraudulent Battle Honours flag. Intended as a six-part series books, 1 & 2 were published but 4 through 6 though completed never saw the light of day. Fingers severely burned, Tony Linck looked west and found the 'Todd Father' and E.H.Q. Extensively rewritten, expanded and revised to include the Marshals, Tony has produced an essential history of these key players in the final campaign. Each general's career is covered from birth to death, with particular emphasis on their roles in 1815. This book contains a lot of information and detail that you would be hard pushed to find and justifies it existence in my library. All we want now are the companion volumes covering the allies.
