MP3•Thuis aflevering

1802. July… August… September… Three months in which Napoleon Bonaparte outmanoeuvres France’s Senate to move even closer to absolute power… In St Petersburg Russia’s new Tsar seems to have got over the distressing circumstances of his predecessor’s murder… And on both sides of the English Channel the Peace of Amiens is starting to look more than a little shaky. This is episode 43 of the Napoleonic Quarterly - covering three months in which France moves closer to what many fear looks, feels, smells… like monarchy.
