About this listen

 THE GENERALS is the compelling second novel in Simon Scarrow's bestselling Wellington and Napoleon quartet. A must read for fans of Robert Harris.

In the turbulent aftermath of the French Revolution Napoleon Bonaparte stands accused of treachery and corruption. His reputation is saved by his skill in leading his men to victory in Italy and Egypt. But then he must restore order in France and find peace or victory over her enemies: England - and Arthur Wellesley (the future Duke of Wellington).
Wellesley is leading a vast army in India, where British interests are under threat. The campaign will result in the creation of the Raj - the jewel in the British Empire's crown. Wellesley returns to England a hardened veteran and more determined than ever to end France's domination of Europe.
Both Wellesley and Napoleon intend to win - whatever the cost. Who will ultimately succeed?©2007 Simon Scarrow Action & Adventure Genre Fiction War & Military World Literature Fiction Imperialism Napoleon Bonaparte French Revolution Middle Ages Suspense Italy England Africa British Empire

Scarrrow bieng a British writter displayed horrendus bias against Tipu of Mysore, he not only whitewashed his exceptionally brave last stand but totally ommitted the fact that the British only won because of one of Tipu's generals(Mir Sadiq) treachery. The Brtish despite heavily outnumbering Tipu's forces were starving and in dire straits when Mor Sadiq withdrew his forces and gave way for the British assualt to succeed. I have been an avid reader of Scarrow but here he has absolutely disappointed me, altering history a bit for the plot understandble but showing bias of this calibre is unacceptable to say the least. The performance by Jonathan keeble was excellent always.
