Summary

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.

Henrietta Elizabeth Marshall (1867 – 1941) was a British author, most famous for her works of history for children.

For decades, Marshall's books were ubiquitous in schools and home libraries. Much of the popularity of her works stems from her talent for making history read like good storytelling.
