I really was trying not to include spoilers as I personally am dreadfully
spoiler averse. Hence I only referred to Napoleonic history in general, no
details and didn't specify anything about the books. However, if someone
doesn't know who won or loss during the Napoleonic Wars, I don't really
consider that a spoiler. Rather like the movie Titanic. I read somewhere
that some of the fan base didn't know the boat sank. I really doubt anyone
on this list is that unknowing, i.e. totally ignorant of Napoleon et al. I
am constantly amazed by what members of this list know. Regarding the Novik
books I urge that you rush out and get them. I am really enjoying them. I
love Temeraire and love how well his name fits him. He is a most
Jacobinical dragon.
