Good Napoleon Bio Sought (1 Viewer)

[zblang]

I just read an article about Napoleon and the Jews and it got me thinking how little I know about him. What's the best bio available? I want details, but I am no Napoleon scholar at all (Medieval England, maybe). Looking for one that's got great info and a fun read.

Any thoughts?
Thanks

Might I suggest Robert B Asprey's two volumes .. "The Rise of Napoleon" and "The Reign of Napoleon" for a quick start. Works some consider to be more neutral on The Emperur.

Try Constance's account of his life.

"The Age of Napoleon" by J. Christopher Herold is a good one too.
