註釋Napoleon Journal has earned critical acclaim for provocative battle and campaign studies (using translated European primary sources), original artwork and uniform illustrations, detailed color maps and orders-of-battle, reviews, travel guides, etc., celebrating the 200th anniversary of a fascinating and exciting period of history: the French Revolution and Age of Napoleon Bonaparte.In embarking for Egypt, twenty-nine-year-old General Napoleon Bonaparte and his men set off as much in pursuit of the ghosts of Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar as they did to strike a blow against the hated English. Successfully evading the British ships sent to intercept his army, Boneparte landed and captured Cairo after defeating the Mameluke overlords. However, Rear Admiral Horatio Nelson finally cornered the French warships in Aboukir Bay and delivered a devastating blow to Bonaparte's plans for Egypt.
