About
Hi, I'm Alex Stevenson...
I'm making a history podcast called The Napoleonic Quarterly which takes the epic conflicts of the 1792-1815 period three months at a time. I'm very lucky to speak to three experts per episode about the leading topics of the day - plus two indefatigable historians, Charles Esdaile and Alexander Mikaberidze, who join me for their perspectives throughout. It's something of a mammoth undertaking, with 96 episodes to get through in total. I need all the support I can get, moral and material... join me on the journey!
