• Louis-Nicolas Davout, the Iron Marshal—Napoleon’s most disciplined and undefeated commander.

• Joachim Murat, the flamboyant cavalry genius who rose from stable boy to King of Naples.

• Louis-Gabriel Suchet, the unsung strategist who mastered counterinsurgency in Spain.

• Saint-Cyr, the intellectual-turned-general with a mind for art as much as arms.
