The book explores the interactions and experiences of British visitors and captives in France during the tumultuous period of Napoleon's rise and reign. Alger delves into the social dynamics, political undertones, and personal stories that emerged as Englishmen navigated their relationships with French citizens amid shifting allegiances and changing circumstances. The opening of the work sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of the vast impact of the French Revolution, highlighting the notable dislocation of individuals across Europe, particularly among the French nobility and other political figures. Alger outlines how the Peace of Amiens in 1802 marked a significant uptick in British travel to France after a decade of hostilities, with numerous English visitors eager to witness the transformative atmosphere of post-revolutionary France. The introductory chapter establishes a backdrop of historical context, emphasizing the social and political exchanges that occurred not only between British visitors and French society but also amidst the hardships faced by those who found themselves unexpectedly detained under Napoleon's regime.
