The Story of Napoleon Bonaparte

His father served as the corsican representative to the court of louis the sixteenth, starting in 17 77. He excelled at just about everything and never stopped reading,. This did not make him particularly popular with the other boys who teased him about his incial corsican accent. And this is, of course, as good as time as any to mention that napoleon bonaparte was not also teased about his diminutive stature, because, contrary to all historical myth he was not short. His father died while was at school, and the subsequent financial hit his family took meant that napoleon had to race to complete a two year programme in a single year.
