The Emperor's American - Paperback

by Art McGrath (Author)

The first in a new series following the adventures of Pierre Burns through the Napoleonic wars to the climactic battle of Waterloo.

Pierre Burns of Baltimore, Maryland, was brought up to hate the English but thought he would never be able to do anything about it. Now in early 1804, stranded on a French shore in the midst of Napoleon's Army that is preparing to invade England, Burns has been given his chance as an aide-de-camp to Marshal Michel Ney. In French uniform but still an outsider, Burns stands ready to battle his way to London but it remains to be seen who his real enemies are- the English, his fellow soldiers who resent his presence, or even his American countrymen.
