What Hacker News says
- No not really, a couple things that Napoleon has done:
- Probably one of the earliest proponents of the creation of a jewish state
- Created a legal system that is still in use today
- Essentially united Germany and changed the face of europe
- Was beloved by his people and his soldiers ( kinda Hitlerish??)
Truly a fascinating man, I recommend reading Napoleon the Great by Andrew Roberts, I could list more but i literally just woke up.
- I can't recommend enough the book "Napoleon the great" by Andrew Roberts.
- Books this year that I loved:
"A Place of Greater Safety" - Hilary Mantel [French Revolution - Danton, Robespierre, Desmoulins ...]
"One Summer: America 1927" - Bill Bryson
"Napoleon the Great" - Andrew Roberts
"Seveneves" - Neal Stephenson
Reading "The Box" at the moment which is pretty interesting.
