The book looks at the Napoleonic Wars' Peninsular campaigns from the French side and emphasizes the poor command structure in the theater. It covers the entire war including overall strategy and constraints on French options. Individual battles aren't examined in great detail (but there are some maps of major battles). In the final chapter, Humble ranks the Marshals who fought in the Peninsula…while completely subjective, it is very interesting!
