Alexandre Dumas the father’s work describes the most important deeds of Napoleon, his Russian campaign, and even includes the text of the Emperor’s testament with a detailed list of his possessions. The story of an adventurer on a world scale, Napoleon Bonaparte, will undoubtedly interest the modern reader.
“... Three attempts were made without success. During one of them a bomb falls at Bonaparte’s feet. Two grenadiers rush to him at once and cover him with their bodies, shielding his head and standing guard from all sides. The bomb explodes—and, by a miracle, the shrapnel spares this selfless devotion: no one is injured.”
