on 5XX Daventry

View in Radio Times

NAPOLEON’S fame as a conqueror and as a captive has tended to obscure his vast nd solid achievement as a ruler, legislator and codifier of law. But in reality the Code Napoleon is as monumental a feat as the most spectacular exploits of the Grande Armée ; and it has the advantage of enduring to this day. In this talk Miss Phythian will recall Napoleon's record as a master of the arts of peace.
