Shannon interviewed by El Rincón de Byron

I recently had the pleasure of being interviewed by El Rincón de Byron (Byron’s Corner), a fabulous website for fans of the Napoleonic period. Among other things, I talked about why I am drawn to the early 19th century, and the challenge of writing about people who lived 200 years ago. I also name some of the authors who have influenced my thinking about Napoleon. To read the interview (in Spanish and in English), click here.
