With a historian's keen insight and a journalist's flair for detail, David A. Bell exposes the surprising parallels between Napoleon's day and our own-including the way that ambitious "wars of liberation," such as the one in Iraq, can degenerate into a gruesome guerrilla conflict. The result is a book that is as timely and important as it is unforgettable.
