Bonaparte's Invaders
Description
Napoleon's mighty army face the inferno of the Egyptian desert in this thrilling historical adventure, the sequel to Bonaparte's Sons.
France, 1798. Seventeen thousand French troops leave Toulon harbor in May, unaware of their ultimate destination. Barely three months after taking Rome, Napoleon Bonaparte has rewarded his finest regiments with a place among the Army of the Orient, bound for Egypt.
Alain Lausard and his cavalry unit are on board the frigate L'Esperance. Their first battle is merely to survive the degradation that is life at sea. By the time they stagger, starved and exhausted, upon the shores of Egypt, Lausard's dragoons have more than glory to fight for.
As his beleaguered soldiers march into the desert, Bonaparte watches his tactical gamble collapse. Even when the Mameluke army is defeated beneath the pyramids, Admiral Nelson's destruction of the French fleet and Bonaparte's obsessive war-mongering convince Lausard that he will never see Paris again...All prices
