Thanks, I'll check it out

BBC's Cold War.

If you've got a spare 24 hours it's a complete rundown of everything that happened from 1945 to 1990. It's all on Youtube.

There's "Living in the French Revolution and the Age of Napoleon" on Amazon.

It's just one lady sort of pacing around a room and talking (except for a few maps or pictures here and there) so maybe a bit boring, but it's pretty informative and detailed, giving a more or less complete overview from the Old Order to the aftermath of Waterloo.

Watching this now, pretty great. They do a good job of highlighting standout commanders.

>"Von Kreul rushed directly at the best trained riflemen in the world. So deadly was the fire of the British professionals that the Germans could not believe they were not up against machine gun. The dead piled up"

The Germans literally gave a medal to the soldiers survived.
