3. I'm watching this too.
I'm not an expert at Napoleonic history, so I'm learning a lot.

4. Napoleon's masterpiece
Edited on Sun Jun-19-05 09:38 PM by Zuni
he really tricked them up there---when he gave the Russians the high ground and let them hang themselves while their columns seperated. It took balls bigger than Napoleon actually was to pull that off

Napoleon was a master---one of the most ingenious military victories ever. until Robert E. lee and Stonewall jackson routed a 130,000 man Army with 60,000 men in 1863 at Chancellorsville by dividing the Army of N Va 4 times, it was the most outrgaeous battle of the 19th century
