Napoleon: A Very Short Introduction (Very Short Introductions) by David A. Bell
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 3 MB
Overview: This Very Short Introduction might prove disappointing to those expecting an introduction to a very short man. Dispelling the myth of Napoleon Bonaparte’s short stature, as well as the other rumors and legends, David A. Bell provides a concise, accurate, and lively portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte’s character and career, situating him firmly in historical context.
This book emphasizes the astonishing sense of human possibility–for both good and ill–that Napoleon represented. By his late twenties, Napoleon was already one of the greatest generals in European history. At thirty, he had become absolute master of Europe’s most powerful country. In his early forties, he ruled a European empire more powerful than any since Rome, fighting wars that changed the shape of the continent and brought death to millions. Then everything collapsed, leading him to spend his last years in miserable exile in the South Atlantic.
