About this listen
The Napoleonic Wars saw fighting on an unprecedented scale in Europe and the Americas. It took the wealth of the British Empire, combined with the might of the continental armies, almost two decades to bring down one of the world's greatest military leaders and the empire that he had created. Napoleon's ultimate defeat was to determine the history of Europe for almost 100 years. From the frozen wastelands of Russia, through the brutal fighting in the Peninsula to the blood-soaked battlefield of Waterloo, this book tells the story of the dramatic rise and fall of the Napoleonic Empire.

Excellent book!
I'm giving low on the performance scale because there are some weird audio issues left in, but great work otherwise!

Thorough but early long
Good and comprehensive review of the early 19th century European wars and their impact on the world. European history impacted and dominated events that set the stage for much of the 20th century conflicts. Exhaustive analysis with some side tracks but worthwhile.

informative and broad.
Great book. takes a broader look at the effects of the war globally.
I have read several books on this period, but this is the only one I can think of that touches on the Brittish East India Company, Haitian revolution, China, Japan, and many more often overlooked aspects.

Painful
Although there was a ton of detail, which is why I purchased the book, it was torture to listen to. It was like listening to someone read an encyclopedia.
A few hours were interesting and I did learn a lot, but overall this was a tough one to get through.

The Napoleonic Snores
Banal in expression, trite in judgment and episodic in narrative. Lots of detail but little insight.
