  <default_description>&lt;I&gt;The Last Great Dance on Earth&lt;/I&gt; is the triumphant final volume of Sandra Gulland's beloved trilogy based on the life of Josephine Bonaparte. When the novel opens, Josephine and Napoleon have been married for four tumultuous years. Napoleon is Josephine's great love, and she his. But their passionate union is troubled from within, as Josephine is unable to produce an heir, and from without, as England makes war against France and Napoleon's Corsican clan makes war against his wife. Through Josephine's heartfelt diary entries, we witness the personal betrayals and political intrigues that will finally drive them apart, culminating in Josephine's greatest tragedy: her divorce from Napoleon and his exile to Elba. &lt;I&gt;The Last Great Dance on Earth&lt;/I&gt; is historical fiction on a grand scale and the stirring conclusion to an unforgettable love story.&lt;P&gt;</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[A perfect ending to a wonderful trilogy. Gulland has clearly done her research and France comes alive through the eyes of Josephine Bonaparte. Compassionate, kind and well-loved in France, Josephine also gives us a very intimate and sympathetic insight to Napoleon Bonaparte.

    <body><![CDATA[I read the last two of this series in one week.  I did not know the history of the characters, and couldn't wait to find out what happened in the end.  I love the way she wrote this book, somewhat reminiscent of David McCullough's &quot;John Adams&quot; in the writing style.  Historical fiction.

    <body><![CDATA[I just read the first two books in this series and I can't get enough of them.  I would recommend these to anyone and everone (anyone female at least)! The Josephine character is so relatable and down to earth as told by Gulland.  I wish she would write a fourth and a fifth, but I think this is the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/13576870">more...</a>]]></body>
