Overview

Originally published in 1893, The Great Napoleon for Children is a gripping, colorful account of the life of one of the brightest minds in military history. The original ornate illustrations of the magnificent Napoleon Bonaparte spill across nearly fifty pages, covering the events from his birth in 1769 to his death at St. Helena in 1821, and featuring his many explosive feats in between, including the mobilization of tens of thousands of men, grand and exotic thousand-mile journeys, the painful loss of friends and comrades, and even dogs trained to salute their emperor. Even hundreds of years after his death, the world salutes Napoleon and his monumental achievements. More than just a cozy bedtime story, The Great Napoleon for Children is a snapshot of history which attests to the reasons for Napoleon's near-mythic legacy. The highlight reel of his achievements and tribulations presented by the book provide an excellent jumping-off point for your little ones to learn about the life and times of a man who defined an era. This new English translation of a French-language classic should entice both parents and children alike.
