As well as telling the full story of Waterloo and Blucher's part in it, this book details a career which spanned the entire Napoleonic era. No other general clashed so many times with Bonaparte, and Blucher's life epitomizes the excitement and horror of this period.
Without the timely arrival of the brave 72-year-old Blucher at the head of his Prussian army, the course of the Battle of Waterloo, and of history, could well have taken a dramatic turn.
