NAPOLEON BONAPARTE'S FIRST CAMPAIGN.

Since its publication this work has received the enthusiastic praise of Press and Public, and has taken an important, and in many respects a unique, place in the ranks of Napoleonic contributions.

The peculiar conciseness and lucidity of the style, and the discriminating avoidance of technical and unessential details, have invited the attention of a non-military public; while the preservation of the strategic essence of the history has insured for the work a permanent interest to the student of the art of war. The book has been officially recognized by the United States Government,—the War Department having purchased one hundred copies for distribution in the service; and it has received the hearty commendation of the commander in chief of the British army.
