Adam Zamoyski

Napoleon: The Man Behind the Myth ‘What a novel my life has been!’ exclaimed Napoleon – but he wrote much of it himself. A masterful and shameless manipulator of myths, he created a narrative that still inspires passionate and conflicting responses.

Adam Zamoyski argues that he was none of these and presents a more human, more understandable and far more interesting Napoleon. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
