Title: The Battle of Waterloo in detail - brilliantly written
Date: Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2018
Review: The legacy of Napoleon's loss at Waterloo is generally attributed to the superior strategy and leadership of the English commander, the Duke of Wellington. There is no doubt that the Duke, victorious in the Peninsular wars (in Spain), was a brilliant military strategist, but from my perspective he won at Waterloo primarily because he was not fighting Napoleon in his prime. Napoleon had amassed brilliant tactical victories in the early 1800's (e.g. Austerlitz, etc) defeating other allied (English, Prussian, Austrian, etc.) coalition armies - and was often outmanned. Napoleon was in his early 30's and actively guided his troops on horseback. At Waterloo, Napoleon was an aging 46 year old (he died at 51), overweight and suffering health issues. While he did play a principal role in planning and preparing for Waterloo, he left the actual conduct of the battle to his Generals, who almost without exception made grave strategic and tactical errors - which Napoleon allowed to happen, and which likely gave the victory to Wellington. The mistakes made by Napoleon were numerous: allowing Wellington to dictate the field of engagement at Waterloo by gaining the high ground, failing to immediately attack Wellington's forces when they ware still gathering their army at Waterloo and in a weak position, sending confusing orders to French General Grouchy which caused him to take his 33,000 troops 12 miles north of Waterloo, effectively eliminating them from the main battle, and further failing to call them back in a timely manner, and allowing General Ney to mount an ill-advised cavalry charge directly into Wellington's entrenched forces which decimated the French cavalry. All of this occurred with full visibility and knowledge of Napoleon, yet he failed to take any timely action to recall or correct these tactical mistakes. Wellington was no doubt a formidable foe, and his troops were well-trained and fought with discipline, but even with all of the French tactical mistakes Napoleon would likely have won but for the last minute arrival of the Prussian troops to reinforce the English army, which had suffered significant losses. Perhaps Napoleon thought himself and his army invincible. When I attended the Air Force War College we spent a great deal of time studying the Napoleonic wars, and also the writings of the Prussian office Carl Von Clausewitz in his seminal book on war, "Vom Kriege" ("On War"). Even a younger Napoleon would have had a difficult battle - Wellington was undefeated in battle and a superb defensive strategist. The book is thorough, and more than anything shows how brutal battles were in this period. Musket accuracy was best at close range, about 30-60 yards ("don't fire until you see the white's of their eyes!"), and the discipline to hold your fire when facing a cavalry charge with hundreds of riders would have been terribly frightening, but the English had been well-trained, and their tactics of forming squares to fight cavalry charges, then reforming into "lines" to counter infantry attacks was brilliantly effective, but Napoleon's superior cannon batteries and howitzers inflicted serious damage and death to huge numbers of the English forces. In the end it came down to the discipline and resilience of the British forces, the calm and strategic leadership of Wellington, the mistakes and delayed decisions by Napoleon, the strategic errors of his generals (and Napoleon's failure to quickly countermand them), and ultimately the arrival of the Prussian reinforcements that spelled defeat for Napoleon. If you're interested in Military history, this is a must read book.

Title: Magnificent Account for All
Date: Reviewed in the United States on September 14, 2015
Review: As someone who does not know much of Wellington, Napoleon, or Europe in the 1800s, "Waterloo" was a complete introduction to me of one of the greatest battles of all time. And Bernard Cornwell's account is magnificent.

This book was enjoyable to read. It flowed well from beginning to end. Descriptions of the battle were detailed, colorful, and gory (it is war, what do you expect?). Cornwell captures the readers imagination. He also includes many quotations and first person accounts--giving a true sense of what it was like to be there. Brilliant paintings and maps fill the pages giving the reader much to visualize the battle as it is laid out before him (this was a hard copy). I find it difficult to visualize battle movements when solely based on textual descriptions, so the detailed and vibrant maps vastly contributed to my reading experience.

What I appreciate most of Cornwell may not even be his story telling prose--but how accessible his information is. The most clueless Waterloo amateur (like myself) will not be left in the dark long. Cornwell's writing will bring anyone up to speed on the basics of Napoleonic warfare: What is a column? What is a square? What is a line? And what are the advantages of each formation? Why would people march in massive columns in the open and willingly shoot each other? He describes what affect the musket, the cannon, and the horse had on 1800s tactics. He spends much paper discussing the leaders: Wellington, Napoleon, Blucher, Ney. Anyone can read this and very quickly understand the times, the tactics, and the battle itself.

I learned much of Napoleon and his arrogance which I believe came back to bite him. He believed that he was near invincible, attacking two armies that together almost doubled his own strength. He delegated much power to his Marshalls (why?!) who time and time again broke clear rules of engagement. Wellington in contrast was very much involved in the battle--his calm and steady countenance exuded confidence. His troops took heart in brilliant displays of courage and (spoiler alert) withstood to win the day. The Prussian General Blucher's persistence after getting whipped earlier also contributed to the eventual defeat of The Emperor. There is much strength in unity.

If I was picky I would wish that Cornwell would have summarized key events a little more. Instead of simply describing the facts and giving quick real time analysis, I would have appreciated Cornwell to have stepped back from the battle to elaborate on the significance of each moment more frequently. Part of me is left wondering--actually how important was the holding of Hougemont or how important was the charge of the Royal Scott Greys in the overall picture of the battle? Cornwell does well to say that understanding Waterloo is near impossible as war (and this battle in particular) is chaos. There are many contradictory accounts over what happened and where it happened and when it happened. Even so, I feel that he could have summarized the key events more.

But that is a small thing in the big picture as all in all I found this book masterful. Before I read this I had no understanding of the people and events of Waterloo, and now I know more than most. That is why I read books! I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys learning history and events that have shaped our world. Enjoy.

Review: An exceptionally well written book, but not for everyone. Brings home anew the savagery and horror of war. The men chose to fight but the poor horses didn’t have a choice.
