About this book

Ida M. Tarbell follows Napoleon Bonaparte from boyhood at Brienne through the Italian and Egyptian campaigns, the consulate and the empire, the Russian campaign, Elba, the Hundred Days and St. Helena, ending with the second funeral. A shorter sketch of Josephine then traces her from her first marriage to Alexander de Beauharnais, through Malmaison and the divorce, to her death in 1814. Pictures come from a collection of Napoleon engravings made by G. G. Hubbard, with others from French collections, and the back matter includes a chronology, a table of the Bonaparte family and specimens of his handwriting.
