Abstract
Napoleon Bonaparte, one of the most outstanding figures in modern Europe, was born at Ajaacio on August 15, 1769. He was a military genius, a powerful statesman, and a man of tremendous ambition and self-confidence who possessed a tireless energy; along with these characteristics were added a deep knowledge of men and an inspiring personality. So completely did the personality and achievements of this man dominate the history of Europe from 1799 to 1814 that the period may be referred to as the Age of Napoleon.
