<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Russia played a key part in the military campaigns and the ultimate defeat of Napoleon. At the same time the Napoleonic Wars affected almost every aspect of Russian life - economically, politically, socially and ideologically. This volume brings together the most important and new research on Russia and the Napoleonic period by Russian and non-Russian historians. Their work demonstrates why this period is so significant both for internal Russian developments and for an understanding of Russia's relationship with Europe. The Wars not only shaped early nineteenth-century Europe but also have a contemporary relevance for understanding Russian perceptions and international relations today.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"This is a valuable book: it introduces new features of Napoleonic Russia to the non-specialist, it strikes a good thematic balance between domestic and foreign policy, and between society, economics and politics; and for all the vastness of its subject, it nonetheless conveys a sense of how the ordinary Russian experienced this turbulent period." (Michael Rowe, perspectivia.net, June, 2017) </p><p>"All of the chapters are mercifully short, direct, well explicated, and easily read. A well-done book. ... Summing Up: Recommended. Most levels/libraries." (N. E. Bou-Nacklie, Choice, Vol. 53 (9), May, 2016)</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Michael Broers, Oxford University, UK Alan Forrest, University of York, UK Elise Kimerling Wirtschafter, California State Polytechnic University, USA Marie-Pierre Rey, University of Paris Pantheon Sorbonne, France Aleksandr A.
