Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss Napoleon Bonaparte's temporary return to power in France in 1815, following his escape from exile on Elba . He arrived with fewer than a thousand men, yet three weeks later he had displaced Louis XVIII and taken charge of an army as large as any that the Allied Powers could muster individually. He saw that his best chance was to pick the Allies off one by one, starting with the Prussian and then the British/Allied armies in what is now Belgium. He appeared to be on the point of victory at Waterloo yet somehow it eluded him, and his plans were soon in tatters.

During the Napoleonic Wars, 18th-century leaders in Europe quickly decided the best way to beat Napoleon Bonaparte was to retreat and not meet him on the battlefield at all. He was head and shoulders above the other commanders of the day. So why did it go so spectacularly wrong for him at Waterloo?In episode two of his series, Dan delves into who Napoleon was as a military commander- what made him so effective on the battlefield, as a leader of men and conqueror of lands. He's joined by military historian Dr Zack White, as they dissect the Siege of Toulon in 1793 in which Napoleon proved himself a commander of extraordinary promise. They assess his strategy and tactics at Austerlitz, his incredible relationship with his men on the battlefield, and how the later years of his life were mired by internal turmoil that soon clouded his once precise military reasoning.Produced by Mariana Des Forges, Freddy Chick and edited by Dougal Patmore.Don't miss out on the best offer in history!

Somehow, even when we act and decide to do specific actions based on an empowered choice, we still have that scarcity mindset at the back of it.  We want to make things happen all at once, and our mind keeps wandering off to doing and thinking things that sabotage a slow but sure transformation we want for ourselves. Perhaps, that's human nature. And each of us has our own money story that speaks of where we are in our life right now and how we approach that as we make decisions and actions in our everyday life. Our attitude toward money matters finds its parallelism in the way of a diet mentality when we deal with body weight and body image. This also sends a message of a scarcity mindset. How do we deal with body weight loss and want every good thing to happen in our life and career right then? Zack White is a widely regarded coach known for changing the game in engineering career coaching. He has worked with hundreds of engineers at all levels from dozens of top companies worldwide to escape burnout and achieve breakthrough results. Zach is the founder and CEO of Oasis of Courage, known as OACO, a fast-growing company with unique and proven coaching programs exclusively for engineers. He also hosts the Happy Engineer Podcast, where listeners discover the steps to engineering success through expert interviews in Zach's own transformational framework, The Lifestyle Engineering Blueprint. In this episode, Zach shares his clients' contrasting money stories of abundance and scarcity and his own self. Despite being a coach, his experience tells us that in wanting to work on our issues, we still have vulnerabilities to deal with.  And it's good to have someone to call us out when we go wayward and guide us back to where we should be going and the goal we must fulfill. In that regard, a community of like-minded people who truly understand what you go through and can help you also see the light and freedom that you deserve is what you need. As the road to transformation is peppered with challenges and not easy, it's one good idea to have someone hold us accountable to the success we want for ourselves.

After 12 years of battles against the French Republic's various neighbours, this was Napoleon's final stand. Although many associate its name with a Eurovision winning hit from 1974, the Battle of Waterloo was in fact devastating to the Republic and its Allied opposition. 24 thousand French and 19 thousand Allied soldiers died on this battlefield. On the 206 anniversary of the battle, Zack White returns to Warfare to discuss whether the battle was inevitable or the Allied victory certain, and if the credit for winning should be as heavily placed with Wellington as it is. Zack expertly guides us through the political and military lead up to the battle, the events of 18 June 1815 and the actors involved.Zack specialises in crime and punishment in the British Army during the Napoleonic Wars at the University of Southampton, and is the creator of the online hub TheNapoleonicWars.net.

The sixth episode of Send Three & Fourpence.   The siege of Badajoz was unquestionably a dark day in the history of the British Army.  On the 6th of April 1812, Wellington's army which was besieging the French garrison launched an all out assault on two breaches that had been made in the walls.    The result was hellish.  The attackers suffered 4,800 casualties, but successfully stormed the town.   After the storm, the officers lost control of their men and the town was sacked. Three days of murder, rape, robbery and looting followed before order was restored.  Zack White of "The Napoleonicist" podcast has argued quite convincingly to my mind that the sack was, if not officially sanctioned, considered an  acceptable risk.  The loot that would result was thought of as a necessary inducement to convince men to storm the town in the face of determined opposition and lacking an appropriate siege train.  You can listen to Zack make his arguments here.  https://static.wixstatic.com/mp3/5419df_26b304f3a6264f8b9d372606be2392c3.mp3 https://anchor.fm/the-napoleonicist/episodes/The-Curious-Case-of-Badajoz-The-aftermath-of-British-sieges-in-the-Peninsular-War-ecqaj8 At the end of the episode, I pose a question - "Knowing what Wellington knew at the time and knowing the likely result for the civilian population,  would you have ordered the storming of Badajoz?"  I'd be interested to hear what you think.  You can leave a message at https://anchor.fm/conrad-kinch or you can record something and send it to me at conrad.kinch@gmail.com.
