I completely agree.

Yeah I'm doing it. Thrilling stuff. Actually it's not bad, Napoleon's a really interesting sort of guy if you're into tyrants and dictators. The PBS did a video series on him, I'm not sure what the address is but you can find it with a search engine. It's really useful, it works along the same lines as the questions given in the syllabus.

Yeah us at North Sydney Boys are doing - note there is a really book out on Napoleon and Wellington worth reading

 

[charmed_cuties]

wat book is it? i'm having troubles jsut organising my notes. i was wondering wat historians are u guys looking at for the syllabus outline on napoleonic historiography

 

[twiddla]

Don't know the title - our teacher is getting it for us - i'll tell u when she gets us a copy or more prob a photocopy

Why if it isn't my fellow classmate Nicho. The book he was probably refering to is called, rather unimaginatively, Napoleon and Wellington by Andrew Roberts. Not sure how new it is.

 

[charmed_cuties]

well my class looked at pieter geyl's work For and Against Napoleon, Geoffrey Ellis Profiles in Power and some other work of his, martyn lyons The French Revolution and napoleon and francois furet and paul schroeder

Yeah scotty is right and scotty if u look in the front cover it was published this year
