American historian William Milligan Sloane wrote a history of Napoleon Bonaparte titled "The Life of Napoleon Bonaparte". Napoleon's life, from his exile on Saint Helena in 1815 to his death in 1821, is continued in the third book. Sloane covers all aspects of Napoleon's exile, including his encounters with his British captors and his musings on his life and legacy. The political atmosphere in Europe following Napoleon's fall and the effects of his dominance are additional topics covered in the book. Like in the earlier volumes, Sloane paints a nuanced and complex picture of Napoleon, examining both his virtues and vices. Overall, "The Life of Napoleon Bonaparte" is an in-depth biography that captures the attention of readers and gives a thorough description of one of the most significant characters in modern history.
