Extractions: Toy Soldiers French Infantry Austrian Army ... Russian Army Napoleon aimed to rule the whole of Europe. In 1800, in his first major campaign as French ruler, his army crushed the Austrians at Marengo. From 1805 to 1807 Napoleon inflicted shattering defeats on the great European powers; on Austria at Austerlitz in 1805, on Prussia at Jena in 1806, and on Russia at Friedland in 1807, although he failed to defeat the British who won the sea battle of Trafalgar in 1805. By 1809 his empire covered most of Europe. In 1812, with an army of 675,000 men (The Grand Army) Napoleon invaded Russia and defeated Tsar Alexander I's forces at Borodino. He pressed on to Moscow, expecting to capture a wealthy city. Instead, he found that the Russians had set the city on fire and the population had fled. Those that remained in the city refused to surrender. Napoleon ordered his men to withdraw, but the Russian winter arrived early. The French army suffered terrible losses due to starvation and the intense cold. The disastrous retreat from Moscow encouraged widespread European uprisings against the French. The Duke of Wellington drove the French out of Spain and by 1814 had crossed into France. At Leipzig in 1813 Napoleon was defeated by the combined forces of Austria, Prussia and Russia. He abdicated in 1814 and was exiled to Elba. A brother of Louis XVI became King, but was so unpopular that after three months Napoleon was able to leave Elba, gather an army and drive him out. Napoleon ruled again for about 100 days. But, near Waterloo in Belgium on 18th June 1815, he suffered a decisive defeat by the British army under the Duke of Wellington and the Prussian army led by Marshal Blucher. Napoleon abdicated again and was exiled to the South Atlantic island, St Helena, where he died in 1821.

Extractions: Our guiding service is based right in the heart of the World War One battlefields, in fact Chez Smith is right across the road from the River Somme, where the bloody Battles of the Somme unfolded. We suggest starting at Les Invalides in Paris where Napoleon Bonaparte is buried. Apart from the magnificent cask, the building houses a museum of Napoleon's life from cradle to grave; his birth and childhood in Corsica, his military training, his rise to power, his defeat and exile. Just to the West of Paris is Malmaison where Napoleon spend some of his happiest days with his wife, the Empress Josephine. Its here we find out what went wrong with their relationship. The final part of the story takes place 3 ½ hours drive away at Waterloo in Belgium, where Napoleon's army was defeated by the combined British and Prussian forces. There are many other Napoleonic relics in other parts of France and Europe; Corsica, the Route Napoleon, Fontainbleau etc. We focus on the North-Eastern part of France - Picardy, Artois, Flanders. From Paris we stop in the Forest of Compiègne to visit the site of the German surrender in a railway carriage.
