One of the most important things that ever happened was this thing that never happened. And that of course was Napoleon's invasion of Britain.
French preparations for the invasion ad numerous consequences, one of which was the training and creation of the Grand Armee. The weapon Napoleon used to dominate Europe from 1805-1807 was forged in the Camp of Boulogne.
This is that story.
It is also the story of Napoleon's invasion plans, the 1805 plan and the 1812 plan. And what did Napoleon really know about what was needed to invade England and were there not times when Napoleon had doubts, such as when he witnessed the Boulogne Fiasco?
