explanation of his defeat at Waterloo.

fhe'meft,'even the old guard,, on whom
Napoleon placed so much reliance
were worn out from years of battle.
Napoleon wore out his men, and final-
ly illness wore qpt Napoleon, but the
spark within him remained alive. Aft-
side in past victories, had deserted him,
partially through a certain strain on
cause of shifting political alignments.
The stage was set for tragedy.
M. Dupont makes the episode of
Waterloo live- like few writers have
done. It is not merely a listing of
known historic facts, but a dramatic
story of death, of terror and heroism.
The urge to write non-military school
b<x>ks cannot overlook the fact that
tl^erc were .certain combinations of
human sacrifice that stand out in
history.
The causes of wars might have
beep ignoble, but the struggle of man-
kind in battle has not always been
limited to mere barbarous acts of car-
nage. M- Dupont brings out this
strain of nobility in the old guard. In
the book, we see'clearly the almost
frenzied efforts of Wellington to get
in touch with Blucher, especially when
Wellington's army was on the verge of
rout arid when one or two more thrusts
from the French would have won the
day and changed Europe. ,

French army is broken and flees Ja,

mered: i
