Book Description
Excerpt from Napoleon I, His Life, History, and Character in a Nutshell: A Biographical Sketch Nearly a century has passed since Napoleon died on the rock of St. Helena, and' I dare to state boldly that this period has not been long enough for us to realize the stature. Of that giant. When standing before some very high edifice, one will have to move backwards in order to get a correct view of it; and the higher the edifice, the farther back one must move to see it all and to secure the fullest effect of the View.

Book Description
This book provides a concise, accurate, and lively portrait of Napoleon Bonaparte's character and career, situating him firmly in historical context. David Bell 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. Bell emphasizes the importance of the French Revolution in understanding Napoleon's career. The revolution made possible the unprecedented concentration of political authority that Napoleon accrued, and his success in mobilizing human and material resources. Without the political changes brought about by the revolution, Napoleon could not have fought his wars. Without the wars, he could not have seized and held onto power. Though his virtual dictatorship betrayed the ideals of liberty and equality, his life and career were revolutionary.
