Sinopse

"Napoleon Bonaparte" offers a comprehensive exploration of one of history's most enigmatic figures, delving into the life, achievements, and legacy of the French emperor. This meticulously researched biography focuses on Napoleon's rise to power, military campaigns, and impact on European politics and society. The book challenges readers to consider whether Napoleon was truly a military genius or simply a product of his time, examining the complex interplay between individual agency and historical circumstances.

 
The biography provides essential background on the French Revolution and the political turmoil of late 18th-century Europe, explaining the factors that contributed to Napoleon's ascent. It chronicles his journey from a relatively unknown Corsican officer to the ruler of France, exploring his major military campaigns and ultimate downfall. The book draws on a wide range of primary sources, including Napoleon's personal correspondence and contemporary accounts, to present a nuanced portrait of a man who was both a military innovator and an authoritarian ruler.

 
What sets this biography apart is its balanced approach, avoiding both hagiography and vilification. It offers insights into Napoleon's leadership style, diplomatic tactics, and strategic thinking, making it valuable for students of European history, military enthusiasts, and those interested in understanding the forces that shaped modern Europe. By presenting a fact-based account of Napoleon's life and impact, the book challenges readers to move beyond myths and engage with the complex reality of this influential historical figure.

    Have you ever wondered what happens behind the scenes in the corridors of power during a major crisis or after a ministerial reshuffle? How do new government ministers get to grips with their portfolios and priorities? Who guides and supports them? And why, sometimes – during events such as 'Partygate' – do things go wrong?
    In this meticulously researched book, former senior civil servant Alun Evans lifts the lid on a vital but little-known cog in the machinery of government: private office and the private secretaries who work within it.
    Private secretaries exercise huge influence, and yet most of us have never heard of them. They are the ones who manage the flow of work, who whisper quietly in ministers' ears and who have been Prime Ministers' closest, most trusted and most discreet confidants. At critical moments in our national history – from the Falklands War to the Westland affair, from Black Wednesday to the 2008 financial crash, from New Labour to the coalition government – they have been central but hidden players.
    With exceptional access to former Prime Ministers and decision-makers, Evans explores what private office is and why it matters to British democracy. He argues that following the egregious constitutional breaches of Boris Johnson's premiership, private office must once again be taken seriously so it can return to being the independent junction box of government and a vital part of the British constitution.

    The world has always been fascinated with ancient Egypt. When the Romans conquered Egypt, it was really Egypt that conquered the Romans. Cleopatra captivated both Caesar and Marc Antony and soon Roman ladies were worshipping Isis and wearing vials of Nile water around their necks. What is it about ancient Egypt that breeds such obsession and imitation? Egyptomania explores the burning fascination with all things Egyptian and the events that fanned the flames—from ancient times, to Napoleon's Egyptian campaign, to the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb by Howard Carter in the 1920s. For forty years, Bob Brier, one of the world's foremost Egyptologists, has been amassing one of the largest collections of Egyptian memorabilia and seeking to understand the pull of ancient Egypt on our world today. In this original and groundbreaking book, he explores our three-thousand-year-old fixation with recovering Egyptian culture and its meaning. He traces our enthrallment with the mummies that seem to have cheated death and the pyramids that as if they will last forever. Drawing on his personal collection—from Napoleon's twenty volume Egypt encyclopedia to Howard Carter's letters written from the Valley of the Kings as he was excavating—this is an inventive and mesmerizing tour of how an ancient civilization endures in ours today.
