Summary: "The Life of Napoleon Bonaparte, Vol. 1" by William Milligan Sloane is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work explores the life and times of Napoleon Bonaparte, detailing his rise from a Corsican background to political and military prominence. Sloane delves into the socio-political climate of Europe during Napoleon's lifetime, providing a comprehensive view of his character, influences, and the historical context that shaped his actions. The opening of the volume establishes the turmoil of the late 18th century as Europe grappled with revolutionary ideas and movements, notably in France and Corsica.

The narrative outlines the complexities of Corsican identity and politics, setting the stage for Napoleon's birth amidst conflict.
