Napoleon's Doctors is the first comprehensive account in English of the medical services of the famed Grande Arme'e—a gripping story dominated by the Emperor; his loyal doctors; and the brutal realities of Napoleonic warfare. It contains eyewitness accounts of soldiers and doctors of the Grand Arme'e; Napoleon's attitude to his sick and wounded men and to his doctors; and the struggles of the French army doctors to gain respect and to survive campaigns including Egypt; the Peninsular War; the depths of Russia; and the final debacle at Waterloo.
