Inside Napoleonic France

'It is high time someone wrote a book like this. Gavin Daly's title is apt, and the ground he has chosen to cover is essential territory to those who wish to grasp the essence of the Napoleonic regime.... His choice of subject is to be applauded.... a mine of useful information and insight into an aspect of the period badly in need of such solid, direct research.... Gavin Daly has broken important new gound and given students of the Napoleonic period many important insights along the way.' H-France 'It is refreshing to read a book on Napoleonic France that presents a mass of unfamiliar information and fresh insights....those who wish to understand the inner workings of the regime will find much of value... written in clear, largely jargon-free academic prose... extensive and thorough... well worth its publication cost for its unique look at Napoleon's France.' The Napoleon Series website 'Napoleonic France has always been something of a poor relation of the revolutionary France in terms of the attention paid it by historians. All contributions to its historiography are therefore welcome, but this is especially so of those of the quality of this work by Gavin Daly.' History
