"In the turbulent aftermath of the French Revolution Napoleon Bonaparte is accused of treachery and corruption. As he leads his men in a series of victorious battles, however, he carves out a reputation in Italy and Egypt as an inspired leader. But revolt is afoot and Napoleon rushes back to France to lead his country. He must bring order to the political unrest at home and find peace or victory over France's enemies, foremost of which is England--and Arthur Wellesley (the future Duke of Wellington). Wellesley is on the other side of the world in India. The British presence is small, and under threat. Wellesley leads vast armies against a series of powerful warlords in campaigns that will result in the creation of the Raj--the jewel in the crown of the British Empire. He returns to England a hardened veteran and more determined than ever to end France's domination of Europe. Both Wellesley and Napoleon intend to win--whatever the cost. Who will ultimately succeed?"--Book jacket flap.
