Produced by Susan Skinner and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Life of Napoleon Bonaparte, Volume III" by Walter Scott is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The work offers a detailed exploration of Napoleon Bonaparte's life and political maneuvers, particularly during a tumultuous period in European history, focusing on his relationships with France, England, and other nations. The narrative delves into the complexities of his military strategies, political ambitions, and the profound impact of his decisions on the course of history. The opening of this volume highlights the escalating tensions between France and England, particularly following the Treaty of Amiens. The text describes the deteriorating relationship, marked by mutual suspicion and grievances that ultimately led to Britain declaring war on France. Key events, such as the expansion of French commercial agents in British territories and the criticisms leveled against Napoleon by the English press, set the scene for conflict. Historical figures like Toussaint L'Ouverture also emerge, as the volume outlines the political struggles in St. Domingo and the consequences of Napoleon's decisions on the colony amidst the backdrop of his broader ambitions and the impending war.
