A Napoleonic Lesson To Steady Our Modern War
A columnist argues that Britain endured darker hours during Napoleonic wars, with Napoleon’s triumphs across Europe and British resilience led by Pitt and Wellington. The piece recalls Trafalgar, Austerlitz, Jena, Tilsit, and Torres Vedras, then notes modern allies France, Italy, Japan, and the United States joining to hasten victory. The overarching message urges endurance, warning against weariness while noting allied strength and growing U S military power.
