About this episode
Board the vessel of nocturnal wisdom on tonight's episode of 'Sleep with History.' Traverse the turbulent timeline of 18th and 19th century Europe by the starlight of Napoleon Bonaparte's unparalleled legacy. Float through the high-tides of revolution; feel the ebb of political upheaval; and bathe in the undertow of deep-seated ambition. Discover how Napoleon's campaigns carved the face of modern Europe, and let the paradoxes of his rule guide you to realms of deep-seated understanding and unrestful slumber. It's not just history, it's an exploration of human spirit within a call of power. Drift into history, drift into sleep. This episode is hosted by Matthew Smith.
