The Biography of Napoleon Bonaparte: Early Life, French Revolution, Emperor of the French, Conquests, Invasions, and his Legacy

A great many things can be said of Napoleon Bonaparte. He was ambitious, driven, a brilliant strategist, a master propagandist, and had an insatiable desire to win and conquer. Joining the French army at the age of 16, he assimilated into their ranks and quickly rose to power as a leader. By the age of 35, he had established himself as the emperor of France.

Above all, Napoleon had the unique ability to manipulate the masses. His men would stay loyal to him under the harshest of conditions and even those from the opposing armies would break ranks to join him. He would anticipate the next move of his rivals and counter them before they could attack.

He was a brilliant student who moved from Corsica to France to study under a scholarship and was constantly bullied because of his small size and strange accent. He survived and would later credit his strength to harsh discipline to which he was subjected by his mother.
