Emil Ludwig, Napoleon
|
"Writing in the present tense, Ludwig brings to life his subject's character better than any other biography of Napoleon." This book is out of print and not part of the public domain. An interesting note is that when this book was published in 1927 it was the number 2 best non-fiction seller that year second to Will Durant's Story of Philosphy.
