Napoleon the Great?



A debate: Andrew Roberts, Adam Zamoyski, and Jeremy Paxman discuss Napoleon.

  1. You can argue Napoleon was not a great person, ruler, friend, diplomat or even a general. But seeing as you cannot really understand history without knowing something about him, you cannot say he is somehow not a great man of history, arguably the last one.

  2. Daniel,

    I'm certainly not as big a fan of Napoleon as Andrew Roberts.

    He was certainly a great man of history. I believe we've had quite a few since then.
