Following the Russian Campaign

Have you seen Scott Armstrong's fabulous 'log' of the Russian campaign; Napoleon in Russia: The Soldiers' Experience on the Campaign of 1812?

He is following the campaign, day by day, in the words of those who took part, posting a selection of quotes from the participants on both sides. It makes for great reading and is a fine addition to other bicentennial activities.
