- Napoleon. About war and peace.

- Kirkhuizen G. Women around Napoleon.
Napoleon Bonaparte (1769-1821), thanks to the French Revolution and the efforts of writers, managed to become a historical figure on a grand scale. This was the first "self-made man" among the great conquerors and rulers. He felt himself to be an instrument of Providence (and therefore, like Caesar, he spoke of himself in the third person), and considered victory to be the "best speaker" (and therefore did not like ranting). He was unpredictable not only in battles and politics, but also in his personal life, causing violent reactions to his every act. The presented three-volume book includes a book of Napoleon's thoughts on people, war and peace, a biography of the great commander created by Nikolai Noskov in 1912, as well as a complete and truthful story by Gertrude Kirkhuizen about Bonaparte's personal life. The publication is richly illustrated with reproductions of engravings from commemorative editions about Napoleon, as well as color reproductions of portraits of the Napoleonic era.
