A look behind the curtain

I enjoyed this book very much. I usually read about the large battles and the campaigns of Napoleon's armies. It was an enjoyable "change of pace" to read about the daily life of Napoleon and his close staff. While fiction, the story is very credible and no doubt captures the essence of what it must have been like to live and work near Napoleon during his downfall and exile. If you enjoy reading about Napoleon and his army then do yourself a favor and read Rambaud's three books set during Napoleon's Empire...
