Napoleon's Conquest of Europe by Frederick C Schneid
Poised to strike at England in the summer of 1805, Napoleon found himself facing a coalition of European powers determined to limit his territorial ambitions.
[T]his is a book about the complicated interplay of economics and diplomacy that occurred between 1796 and 1805While that might seem potentially mundane, here it is not. And that is the strongest recommendation of the work. It should become mandatory reading for those of us in the Napoleonic field, but it would also be useful for giving graduate or upper-level undergraduates a firm understanding of the period's alliance systems and national finances….Napoleon's Conquest of Europe is an excellent survey of the diplomatic and economic considerations that lead to the great events of 1805. The book would serve upper-level undergraduates, graduate students, buffs and experts equally well and certainly belongs in any good library collection. * H-War *
