*insert Napoleon Dynamite joke/reference

I'll leave now.

So far, it's about a vapid as the film.

and yet you trudge on

It has been far too long since I've visited early 19th c. France, and what a better way than through the biography of a megalomaniac?

Interested in some 18th century stuff as well? You should read "The Great Cat Massacre" or "The Forbidden Best-Sellers of Pre-Revolutionary France" by Robert Darnton.

His essays will be more entertaining, I bet.

I'm really mostly interested in the Napoleonic Wars.

Alrighty :) I sadly don't have anything to recommend.

I really should read more about the wars of Louis XIV. I don't even have a basic familiarity with that century.
