Napoleon the Little e-bog

"e;Napoleon the Little"e; is a fascinating biographical analysis of the life and deeds of Napoleon III written by Victor Hugo. Napoleon I's nephew imposed censorship and harsh repressive measures against his opponents, and many people - including Victor Hugo - went into voluntary exile. Hugo wrote this book as an attempt to awaken his fellow citizens to the dangers they faced under the tyranny of Napoleon III. It is a fascinating insight into the life of France's longest-serving French head of state since the French Revolution and not to be missed by fans of Hugo's work.
