2007., Adult, Vintage Classics Call No: Fic Tol Edition: First Vintage Classics edition. Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Summary Note: Historical novel that chronicles the tumultuous events in Russia during the Napoleonic war in the early nineteenth century. Focusing on an aristocratic way of life that had already started to fade at the time that Leo Tolstoy wrote the book in the 1860s, it covers a comparatively short span of time (fifteen years) but it renders the lives of disparate characters from all segments of society with vivid, well-realized details.

Part history lesson, part grand romance, part battlefield revisionism, and part philosophy lecture, War and Peace has captivated generations of readers with its gripping narrative and its clear, intelligible understanding of the human soul.
