An Autobiography of the Emperor

Valoración del libro

Más información sobre el libro

This is an illustrated "autobiography" of the Emperor Napoleon compiled from his commentaries and memoirs dictated on St Helena, edited and put into chronological order. The text spans his childhood in Corsica to exile on St Helena and covers family feuds, divorce from Josephine, retreat from Moscow, Waterloo and more - all in his own words. Napoleon was in inveterate writer, he dictated obsessively and edited his own scripts. He was also very aware of his position as one of history's great leaders. The book should be useful to military enthusiasts, historians and writers.
