The author shows just how close Napoleon came to winning a crushing victory at the start of the campaign. He also shows Blucher was unhorsed and nearly captured in the evening of Ligny - and how this could have had a decisive impact on subsequent events.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA vivid military epic, providing a cogent explanation of why Napoleon, victorious at Ligny, met with defeat two days later.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49564395372817,"sku":"GOR005615461","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50392091001105,"sku":"CIN1853671827G","price":3.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51695325774097,"sku":"GOR001439009","price":10.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53566854299921,"sku":"CIN1853671827VG","price":4.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1853671827.jpg?v=1751313895","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/products\/eagle-s-last-triumph-book-andrew-uffindell-9781853671821","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
