The recognised, authoritative work on the Imperial Guard - Napoleon's elite formation - its antecedents, campaigns and battles. An incomparable drama of endurance, heroism and fidelity, the men of the Guard marched in triumph into Milan, Vienna, Berlin and Warsaw and taught the Grand Armee how to fight. The Guard died at Waterloo - it never surrendered. This second revised edition has more than 300 illustrations (90 in colour)and an appendix with extensive notes. It has a torn dustwrapper but is otherwise in good condition.
