Purchase options and add-ons

This meticulously researched study opens with Napoleon no longer in power, but instead a prisoner on the island of St Helena. This may have been a great fall from power, but Napoleon still held immense attraction.

Every day, huge crowds would gather on the far shore in the hope of catching a glimpse of him. Philip Dwyer closes his ambitious trilogy exploring Napoleon's life, legacy and myth by moving from those first months of imprisonment, through the years of exile, up to death and then beyond, examining how the foundations of legend that had been laid by Napoleon during his lifetime continued to be built upon by his followers. This is a fitting and authoritative end to a definitive work.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fine final volume to Philip Dwyer’s 3 vol. biography of Napoleon
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2023
Verified Purchase
This three volume biography of Napoleon is one of the most comprehensive, balanced and fair minded of Napoleon, Emperor of the French. Dywer does not seek to glorify or demonize merely to let the facts, evidence and results of Napoleon’s tumultuous life speak for themselves.

5.0 out of 5 stars Epic Biography of Napoleon
Reviewed in the United States on January 29, 2014
Verified Purchase
A very detailed and well written account of Napoleon 's rise to power. The author is careful to point out Napoleon 's failings as well as abilities. He ends up being neither the trolling caricature of British cartoons of the period nor the perfect infallible man. Napoleon as a self promoter and brilliant politician are pointed out, as he survives the Revolution not only with his head intact but in power. The author walks you through every incident and debacle. I was happily surprised with the reading.
