THE BOOK OF
FROGS
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF GLORY
Napoleon has his idea about Russia
Chapter 15
bNapoleon saved the Frog masses from cignominious death at the guillotine by sending them to dglorious death in battle,
2Thus introducing the most important innovation in the history of France,
3eNamely, the concept of military victory.
4fFrog soldiers died gloriously and victoriously in numerous nations throughout Europe,
5Including gAustria,
6hItaly,
7iRussia,
8jSpain,
9kAnd many more besides.
10Even the lEnglish were dismayed by Napoleon’s un-Froglike talent for victory,
11And had to wait for a lucky break,
12Which didn’t come until Napoleon decided that he should conquer Russia,
13mAn idea that occurred to him only after he had been living in France for about ten years,
14nAnd can’t be explained any other way.
