The almost unbelievable story of a man who arose from slavery to dominate an entire nation and beat back the might of the French military. He became President, but that was not enough to satiate his ambition. He crowned himself king and created discord and prosperity, majesty and nobility. He became enraptured with his might and power and became an autocratic despot who saw plots everywhere. This is the story of his life - in a 1928 1st edition hardback copy with marvelous drawings and wood-cut prints. This remains a definitive study of his life.
