Synopsis: Produced initially as an appendix to Sir Walter Scott’s Life of Napoleon Bonaparte as published in editions of Murray’s Family Library, this anonymous tome provides for an interesting collection of portraits of the inner circle of the Bonaparte family and the ministers, marshals and generals that supported Bonaparte’s reign.Clearly, from the date of publication and the title which uses the Corsican spelling of the Napoleon’s surname, it is written from and Anglo-centric viewpoint. Some caution should be used in the literal acceptance of all the facts that are alleged.A jaunty and interesting read.
