Set during his first Italian campaign, the book "accompan[ies] him from day to day in the vicissitudes which taxed to the utmost his intellect and his courage, sharing his thoughts, his schemes, his emotions, his lover's agonies over the newly-wed and facile Josephine left in Paris," etc.; incorporated into the narrative are "many of the passionate love letters of Napoleon to Josephine."

In WWI, the Germans shocked mankind with a new weapon, the submarine, which was used to attack neutrals as well as enemies.

First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Fair. Presumed First Edition, First printing. 298, [6], pages. Illustrations. Footnotes. A Partial Bibliography. Index. Introduction by E. Schuyler English. Ink notation on fep. Pencil erasure residue on fep. DJ has some wear, soiling, edge tears and chips. Charles Ernest Pont (6 January 1898 - 28 July 1971) was a French-born Swiss-American artist and Baptist minister. . Given six months to live in 1918, Pont became a born-again Christian and eventually considered the ministry his life-calling. He frequently combined his artistic training with his ministry, giving many illustrated talks. While still studying for ordination, Pont was appointed in 1939 to his first pastorate at Gilbert Memorial Church in Georgetown, Connecticut. During this period he was also director (1940-1942) of the Old Fashioned New England Bible Hour, a radio program broadcast from Norwalk, Connecticut. Receiving his pastoral training at Eastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Pennsylvania, and Shelton College in New York City, he was ordained by the South Brooklyn Baptist Church in 1943, and moved later that year to become pastor of First Baptist Church of New Durham in North Bergen, New Jersey. Unable to adequately support his family in that ministry, he returned to secular work about 1950, but remained available for the rest of his life as a guest and substitute speaker in numerous churches in Connecticut, New York and New Jersey. In the course of his ministry, Pont published two books, The Tabernacle Alphabet (Loizeaux Brothers, 1946), which he also illustrated, and The World's Collision (W.A. Wilde Co., 1956). Books on prophecy are not rare but this is a rare book. Seldom is such a well documented volume as this published in evangelical circles. the author, a deep student of the prophetic Scriptures, has done a vast amount of research among government records and has read thoughtfully innumerable political programs and idealistic schemes for the progress and peace of the world. In the train of such preparation he analyses world conditions in the light of the Bible and the movements of our times. If one would know more about the history of man's tragic and futile rule of this world, more about the devastating effects of the power of the universe that he has begun to harness, more about his one-world concept which does not take God into account, and much more about Bible prophecy as it relates to the culminating years of this age, here is a volume that will open the door to such knowledge. E. Schuyler English was editor of the religious magazine Revelation from 1931 to 1939. He was also on the faculty of the Philadelphia School of the Bible from 1935 to 1947 and was its president from 1936 to 1939.
