Life of Napoleon Bonaparte 



By IDA M. TARBELL 



This is a profusely illustrated work, prepared with the aim of omitting no im- 

 portant Napoleonic picture. In the case of great paintings indispensable to a complete 

 pictorial life of Napoleon, of which etchings or engravings were not obtainable, photo- 

 graphs were specially prepared ; and in consequence the work is singularly complete on 

 its pictorial side. Moreover, it contains one of the most readable short biographies of 

 Napoleon anywhere in existence.

This is the first important literary fruit of Mr. Doyle's army experience in South 

 Africa. The author's painstaking methods in historical work are as well known to 

 readers as his skill as a story teller, and his new history of the Boer War will for this 

 reason possess unusual merit. In Press.

"A portrait that helps us to understand better than ever before the manner of man 

 Abraham Lincoln was. . . . A narrative that is so intimate in its revelations as this of 

 Miss Tarbell's heliis us to realize that, with all his greatness, Abraham Lincoln was cast 

 in the mold of our common humanity. . . . Her work presents a portrait of tiie man 

 that no student of history can aft'ord to miss, for it is very human, and does full justice 

 to that homely side of Lincoln's character which lias done more than anything else to 

 give him a hero's place in the hearts of the common people." — Brooklgn Eagle.
