Short summary

In March 2002, construction workers in Vilnius, Lithuania uncovered a mass grave filled with nearly 2,000 human skeletons. Scientists determined that the bones belonged to the last remnants of Napoleon's Great Army, who succumbed during their bitter retreat from Moscow in 1812. History has long held that Napoleon's plans were defeated by the Russian winter; would these bones say otherwise?
