Titel: How the French Won Waterloo (Or Think They Did)
Auteur: Stephen Clarke
ISBN: 9781780893761
Conditie: Als nieuw
Published in the 200th Anniversary year of the Battle of Waterloo a witty look at how the French still think they won, by Stephen Clarke, author of 1000 Years of Annoying the French and A Year in the Merde. Two centuries after the Battle of Waterloo, the French are still in denial. If Napoleon lost on 18 June 1815 (and that's a big 'if'), then whoever rules the universe got it wrong.
