The Last Love
Great Site! One item on books you may want to add
to your list - though, sadly, it is long ago out of
print - is The Last Love by Thomas Costain,
published in 1963.
Costain, known for his works such as The Tontine
and The Silver Chalice writes a story of Napoleon's
relationship with Betsy Balcombe, as well as detailing
The Man of Destiny's stay on St Helena.
Costain's great appreciation of history, as well as
his fanatical approach to detail, makes the book worthwhile
bedside reading for those wishing a closer look at
Napoleon, the man.
I heartily suggest it to those who visit your site
as an entertaining historical novel.
