Dear Bernard

With the recent re-release of Christopher Duffy’s book Eagle Over the Alps on Suvorov’s Incredible Italian Campaign. I wondered what your thoughts were on his ability as a General and if he and Napoleon had gone up against each other what the Result would’ve been ?

Regards Geraint

P.S If you’ve not read it Eagles Over the Alps is definitely a book worth getting if you have not read it.
