M. Markham, I was looking through your book, Napoleon's Road to Glory, which I might add you so gratiously donated a signed copy of to my school, and I noticed a bit of trouble with your map in the front cover. It traces Napoleon's route to Egypt as going between Sardinia and Africa, while the map provided in Chandler's 'The Campaignes of Napoleon' has the route traced between Sardinia and Italy. Might I inquire which would be more accurate? It doesn't seem to be a small enough discrepency to be negligable, so I woud appreciate any information you might offer to clear this matter up for me. Thank you. Keep these great podcasts coming! -Stark of Philadelphia This qestion is really pointed more to Monsieur Markham. M.

From someone who knows close to nothing about Napoleon, you've made learning about him extremely interesting and helped me through a few long workdays as well. Keep up the good work!

I especially appreciate the effort to show some of Napoleon's harsh Egyptian campaign decisions as something other than a heartless and pre-calculated bloodbath, the way it seems to be normally portrayed. He was human despite what anti-Bonapartists will say. Kudos. Thanks for another interesting show.

However you did have one small, probably irrelevent mistake, but an annoying one nonetheless. When talking about Jaffa (yaffo in hebrew) you mentioned that its next to Tel-Aviv Israel's capital. Well Israel's capital is Jerusalem, not Tel-Aviv. still this was just a minor matter in a otherwise great show... Gidon great show guys!

You covered a lot of important stages during 'Napoleon and Egypt' and did a great job in showing the true Napoleon...I was surprised to hear about 'the technology mistake' of Napoleon, I didn't know it. The next time we 'meet' will be when First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte marches into World History, although he is himself word history since the day he was born! Continue your great work! Vive l'Empereur! Tim Dear Cameron and David,
