Nigel Nicolson writes that he wanted to "...examine the story afresh, consider why one of the greatest commanders in history lost and one of its least gifted won, how Tolstoy misinterpreted the drama and how Hitler, 130 years later, failed to benefit from Napoleon's example ...and to consider in retrospect the folly and wastage of it all."
