Napoleon door Georges Lefebvre
sehr detailliert; expressis verbis keine Biographie, sondern Zeitdarstellung
Purchased to follow up on the author's French Revolution books. Overall pretty dissatisfying - probably for some of the same reasons that i had problems with the other books. Author assumes a level of knowledge that i don't have. I know- not the author's fault (my fault)- o well. I found the account to be fairly random walk down Napoleon's early successes. Good, yes- but spotty- i didn't feel i was getting the full account- just the author's impressions of when to write about certain episodes.
Only finished Volume 1 and may or may not get to Volume 2. Great, but..... a bit too scholarly for me i guess, as the author constantly throws out names or groups without explanation (and me in the dark). Usually one learns from context and is thereby edified, but not always- sometimes it is just confusing. Having said that, the ground is very well covered. I have been dipping into a few other popular histories of the revolution for context and support and find them too casual- deepening my appreciation of the Lefebvre volume. Was a bit hard to get into, as we are graced with maybe 100 pages (???) of financial background to the revolution. Yes, one supposes that was important, but... it isn't really carried forward, so looking back it seems a bit narrow and unbalanced to overweight that so much.… (meer)
