War and Peace BBC 1972

 While on the subject of the Napoleonic wars in the early 70s this series by the BBC was big news for my 12 year old self. See them here. I had a souvenir guide - a colour magazine that was brought out to accompany the series. I think it was this series that launched Anthony Hopkins' career. Wiki

My copy of the original book was a series tie-in 


This is the souvenir guide. Pinched this off eBay as mine is now long gone.
