By calming revolutionary turbulence while preserving fundamental
gains of 1789, Napoleon Bonaparte laid the foundations of modern
France. But his impact reached beyond France's borders as well. His
legacy of war, civil rights, exploitation, and national awakening
reshaped identities across the European continent, while in the
Atlantic world he destroyed the colonial order and helped plant the
seeds of American power. In this collection of wide-ranging primary
sources -- including confidential memoranda and correspondence,
speeches, memoirs, letters, police reports, and songs, most of
which appear in English translation for the first time -- Rafe
Blaufarb situates Napoleon within his time while opening a broad
perspective on the nature and impact of Napoleonic rule. His
introduction provides a narrative of Napoleon's rise and fall and
frames the key issues of Napoleon's life and times. Useful
pedagogical tools include maps, illustrations, a chronology,
questions for consideration, and a selected bibliography.
