The Point of Honor by Joseph Conrad is about Napoleon the First and his campaign through Europe. Excerpt: "Napoleon the First, whose career had the quality of a duel against the whole of Europe, disliked dueling between the officers of his army. The great military emperor was not a swashbuckler and had little respect for tradition. Nevertheless, a story of dueling which became a legend in the army runs through the epic of imperial wars."
