«Napoleón en Chamartín» is the historical novel by Benito Pérez Galdós, published by Círculo de Lectores in hardback (326 pages, in Spanish).
Young Gabriel goes to Madrid following Inés, the woman he loves, just as the French troops, after the defeat at Bailén, head for the capital. Napoleon intends to subdue Madrid and crown his brother Joseph, while the people of Madrid prepare for a seemingly impossible defense.
«Napoleón en Chamartín» is the fifth title in the first series of the Episodios Nacionales, originally published in 1874.
Benito María de los Dolores Pérez Galdós was a Spanish realist novelist and politician. He was a leading literary figure in 19th-century Spain, and some scholars consider him second only to Miguel de Cervantes in stature as a Spanish novelist.
