Summary: "Napoleon Bonaparte came from a humble family on an island at the edge of the French empire. Fighting pretend battles in his playroom, he dreamed of becoming a war hero. Little did anyone know, he would become one of the most brilliant - and reckless - generals in history. Napoleon declared himself emperor of France in 1804. He conquered lands from Portugal to Poland and made kings and queens of his family members. In a decade, he nearly brought all of Europe to its knees. The only thing more spectacular than his rise to power was his fall from grace." -- Provided by publisher.
