    About this audiobook

    Henrietta Marshall's entertaining biography of this larger than life personality. She takes us through Napoleon's colorful life, from military campaigns to his solitary end on Elba. This story brings Napoleon to life, not just a caricature with hand held in jacket and an aloof look. He achieved much in his life, although not always.

    Commendable or praiseworthy yet he is famous in the history of Europe for his deeds…or misdeeds.
