About this book

First published in 1971, Vincent Cronin's classic biography of Napoleon is now available as an ebook for the first time.

'I wanted to find a Napoleon I could picture as a living, breathing man.'

Vincent Cronin superbly realises his objectives in this, probably the finest of all modern biographies of Napoleon. It is generally regarded as the author's masterpiece.

This edition does not include illustrations.
