| Bonaparte Conquerors by Richard Howard
     | 
| There are many novels set in the
    Napoleonic Wars, all invariably from the British point of view. Finally there is a series
    narrated from the French perspective. Think of the Sharpe series, substituting Richard
    Sharpe with an aristocrat serving as a cavalry Sergeant in the Republican army. The third book in Richard Howard's Bonaparte series. Recalled to
    Paris for the first time in four years, Alain Lausard and his heroic cavalry unit look on
    as Bonaparte stages the coup d'etat that dissolves the existing regime.
