“Mr. Browning’s new book is a personal history of Napoleon between the years 1813 and 1815, and the author does not claim therein to bring to light new facts, but to summarize the results of other people’s researches. His book, is, however, more valuable than might be expected, because he gives for the first time in English a view of Napoleon’s character and conduct, largely founded upon the work of M. Albert Sorel, rather different from that generally accepted in this country.”—Acad.
“As a whole the book is useful. The tale is clearly told but without the help of maps, and it is told moreover with rare, self-restraint. The opinions of the author seldom intrude. Is decidedly an advance on the same author’s work on the youth of his hero.”
