{"product_id":"napoleon-in-exile-norwood-young-9789354211119","title":"Napoleon In Exile: St. Helena (1815-1821) (Volume I)","description":"On a windswept South Atlantic rock, the greatest soldier of his age faced exile and fate. A study in constrained dignity. Norwood Young's Napoleon In Exile: St. Helena (1815-1821) stands as a clear, compelling study of Napoleon's final years after Waterloo. Equal parts narrative portrait and measured historical enquiry, it combines the intimacy of nineteenth-century memoirs with a disciplined account suited to students of early 1800s Europe. Young writes with a steady eye for character and consequence: the sense of remote island imprisonment, the rituals of governance on St Helena, and the political aftershocks felt across the continent are all given sober attention. Readers find within a readable Napoleonic biography collection entry that balances human detail with wider context - valuable to casual readers drawn to dramatic lives and to those compiling resources for Waterloo aftermath studies or the study of European political exile. Historically significant as both a classic historical biography and an exile historical account, Young's volume is a meaningful contribution to St Helena exile history and to the broader literature of European political exile. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Well suited as an academic history reference or as a handsome history enthusiasts gift, the edition bridges scholarship and popular reading: accessible for general audiences yet substantial enough for classic-literature collectors, librarians and anyone assembling a Napoleonic booklist concerned with the military leader's downfall and the human stories behind Waterloo's aftermath. This volume rewards readers who value lucid context as much as scene-setting detail: it is equally at home in a private shelf of classic historical biography and in a university reading list. For those collecting Napoleonic works or assembling an academic history reference on the Waterloo aftermath, Young's careful treatment is a dependable companion; for casual readers it remains an absorbing, humane account of dignity under confinement.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Norwood Young\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9354211119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789354211119\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Alpha Edition\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/02\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 478\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.53lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.06d","brand":"Norwood Young","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48175566717183,"sku":"9789354211119","price":33.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0b072a62-ca16-431c-b3e1-f9ea661aeed0.jpg?v=1771334520","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/napoleon-in-exile-norwood-young-9789354211119","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
