From Napoleon's landing on France's Côte d'Azur to his eventual exile on St Helena, this book takes you on a journey through the Waterloo campaign, highlighting the routes taken by both armies, the pivotal moments of the battles, and the aftermath. With glorious full-color illustrations, you can see where the Imperial Eagles were distributed, where the Anglo-Allied army gathered, and where the French and Coalition forces clashed.
