Publisher's Summary:
Napoleon Bonaparte and Adolf Hitler were two of history's most imperious dictators. Desmond Seward examines the lives of these leaders and demonstrates the numerous striking parallels between their careers and their roles in shaping the destiny of modern Europe.
Napoleon and Hitler were both outsiders of humble origins, the one a Corsican squireen, the other an Austrian petit-bourgeois. Both struggled to be accepted by society. And both, once they achieved power, conducted their political and military careers in similar fashion. For each man, the grand design was the ultimate conquest of Europe, and for each the dream would turn into a nightmare in a disastrous Russian winter campaign.
Napoleon and Hitler shows in an entirely new way how history can repeat itself - and in doing so, it leads the listener to new and unexpected insights into these two terrible giants of modern times.
