Re: Book on Waterloo
In Response To: Re: Book on Waterloo ()

Hi again

I do stand by my comments on his rebranding over the centuries. I acknowledge his greatness as a general (probably the best ever) and his improvements he brought to France in his early years as Consul & Emperor. But I cannot reach any other conclusion than that his power eventually corrupted him and he turned France into a police state, with no freedom of the press - a tyrant in anybody's language.
