This rare 1826 work, published within living memory of Napoleon's
reign, offers an astonishing firsthand look at the emperor as a
leader and as a man. Compiled from numerous sources, include the
writings of French generals and other military leaders, this is the
joint work of French dramatist ANTOINE-VINCENT ARNAULT (1766-1834),
French editor CHARLES LOUIS FLEURY PANCKOUCKE (1780-1844), and
British radical WILLIAM HAMILTON REID (1760-1826), and as such is
one of the few crosscultural explorations of the man in his own
day. Reid, the guiding hand of this intriguing volume, was wildly
pro-Napoleon, and this work is considered overly admiring by some.
But that quality alone recommends it as one of the most
fascinating-if least objective-discussions of Napoleon available to
readers today.
