Historical novel for children, first published in 1907. According to the Preface: This book, chronicling some little known passages in the last few years of Napoleon, is based on the Recollections of Napoleon at St. Helena, by Mrs. Abell (Elizabeth Balcombe), published in 1844 by John Murray. Her little book is written in an old-fashioned and quiet style, and the present writer, without altering any words of Napoleon's, has, so far as possible, given a vivid form to conversations and incidents related undramatically and has rearranged incidents that Mrs. Abell told without great attention to chronology. The writer has also added many pages of matter (with close reference to the best authorities) in order to make the whole story of Napoleon clear to those who are not familiar with it
