Summary "The Story of Napoleon" by Harold F. Wheeler is a historical account, likely written in the early 20th century. The book chronicles the life and career of Napoleon Bonaparte, from his childhood in Corsica to his rise as Emperor of the French and his complex legacy in European history. It delves into the various phases of Napoleon's life, exploring his military conquests, political ambitions, and the profound impact he had on France and the wider world. At the start of the narrative, the author introduces Napoleon not merely as a conqueror but as a complex individual shaped by his upbringing and early experiences. We learn of his birth in Ajaccio, Corsica, in August 1769, and the early influences from his mother, Letizia, and father, Charles Bonaparte. The opening chapters depict a young Napoleon as impetuous and self-confident, developing into a passionate and ambitious boy during his formative years. His education, marked by a thirst for knowledge and a talent for mathematics and history, sets the stage for his future military career. Wheeler hints at the shaping of Napoleon's character through anecdotes about his school days and the early signs of his remarkable leadership qualities, providing a foundation for understanding the man who would go on to change the course of history.
