Russia Against Napoleon: The True Story of the Campaigns of War and Peace by Dominic Lieven
The view we have of the Napoleon in Russia is influenced by Tolstoy. View writers have gone to the Russian sources to understand what happened from the Russian view. This book attempts to remedy that. It goes into details regarding the battles campaigns and society of Russia. The details were so extensive that I missed the big picture. Russians were often in their regiment for the long haul. They had a great deal of loyalty to their group. They worked to beat Napolean.
