Marek Zaczek is called upon by the impetutious but heroic French Marshal Michel Ney, who leads his Sixth Corps north in search of food to forage. Soon, they stumble upon the bulk of the entire Russian Army conducting a surprise winter attack. The historical battles of Eylau and Friedland are covered in detail, as is the Peace Conference at Tilsit. Napoleon's continuing love affair with the beautiful young Polish Countess Marie Walewska is explored. After Tilsit, Marek is drawn into an elaborate subterfuge and is forced to attempt to rescue his mother, Magdalena, from the clutches of an old foe, imperiling Napoleon's newly established peace.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e David Trawinski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1960584197\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781960584199\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Damte Associates\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.96lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.50d","brand":"David Trawinski","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48447007686911,"sku":"9781960584199","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e280c88-b057-4dab-8796-a28fecc4baf2.jpg?v=1777228213","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-life-of-marek-zaczek-david-trawinski-9781960584199","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
