Building up a varied picture of life in the Napoleonic Wars, this book has three main sections covering all aspects of life: manners, morals and monarchy; radicalism and reform; soldiers and sailors. Biographies of ten famous people of this period are included. These are the Prince Regent, Beau Brummel, Jane Austen, William Cobbett, Francis Place, William Blake, Captain "Johnny Kincade", John Shipp, Sir Sidney Smith and William Richardson. This is part of a series that aims to cover crucial historical periods in Europe's history, and that also encourages GCSE skills. The author of this book also wrote "The Roaring Twenties" in the same series.
