Following a failed attempt to conquer Russia,
Napoleon abdicated the throne and was exiled to the Isle of Elba in
April 1814. He staged a comeback known as the Hundred Days, but was
defeated at Waterloo in June 18, 1815. He was then imprisioned on the
island of St. Helena until his death in 1821.

His personal memoirs while at St. Helena were
published in a book titled The Historical and Unrevealed Memoirs of
the Political and Private Life of Napoleon Buonaparte; Serving As an
