André Masséna, Duke of Rivoli, Prince of Essling (May 6, 1758–April 4, 1817) was a French military commander during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. He is considered by military historians as one of the greatest field commanders in history and is often ranked among generals of his generation second only to Napoleon himself.
He and Napoleon had a falling out once and Massena was into looting and massacres as well.
