It's 1812. Russia is on the brink of invasion. Three individuals are intent on saving and sacrificing it all. When Napoleon's army sets foot on Russian soil, Russia swiftly responds by declaring an all-out war on France that leaves no prisoners behind. From the peasants to the nobility, it's impossible for Russian society to escape the clutches of war. And when the entwined fates of three unlikely friends come to fruition, there's no telling who will suffer the most. Weaving a rip-roaring tale of love, loss, and sacrifice unique to the emerging new era of the long 19th century, Tolstoy's epic family saga ¿War and Peace¿ was adapted into the 1960s blockbuster hit starring Audrey Hepburn and Henry Fonda. It is perfect for fans of Ken Follett's 'The Century Trilogy'.
