Description

The glory of the imperial guard resounds above all others in the annals of war. Created, built, and nurtured as a bodyguard for Napoleon, it grew from a brigade of less than two thousand men into a virtual army, and became 'a human fortress which no one but he could dominate and no enemy could penetrate.'
