Celebrating 200 Years Since Waterloo

HarperCollins

JeffX, WEDNESDAY 6/3 @ 9: It's been almost exactly 200 years (June 18th) since Napoleon met his Waterloo. 

The anniversary--and the incident itself--are so significant to writer Bernard Cornwell that he wrote his first NON-fiction book about it: WATERLOO: The History of Four Days, Three Armies and Three Battles

It truly was a turning point in world history. 

The author joins us to highlight the major incidents, and what led up to them.
