Napoleon, Thomas Jefferson, and Alexander I are just a few of the characters striding across the landscape in the years 1800 to 1815, holding the destinies of their nations in their hands as they struggle for survival in the Napoleonic era. It was a time when nations struggled to be kingdoms or republics. Sometimes when Republicans and Royalists couldn't agree, they would try a third thing, a tertium quid in Latin. This the second volume in the sweeping historical survey that will span the years 1740 to 1877.
