I know very little about mechanics of the famous military genius of Napoleon. I was always more into his relationships, his personality, his dedication to culture and education - his intensity, passion and discipline.
He was also amazing in his use of language. In this tonight’s reading of With Napoleon in Russia, Napoleon refers frequently to his redoubts. I have a feeling we can all learn a lot from Napoleon at war. I imagine it’s probably hilarious to hear how I’m pronouncing the name of these Slavic locales.
