A dry order-of-battle type narrative with little insight as to what the sieges were like inside Mantua. The author does not tie in the overall northern italian campaigns very well.

A very well written and researched chronicle of a major part of the Napoleonic War. A must read for war buffs and historians alike.

Cuccia's invitingly-written account draws you into the mind of this world changing military leader Napoleon during his crucial northern Italian offensive, where his military and political styles were tested and matured. The siege of Mantua was a template for today's wars of hearts and minds engaging whole populations, not just soldiers; the military scholar will think of Vicksburg and perhaps Falluja.
