From the preface 'The author's sentiments are liberal: when he speaks of public measures and of the serveral govenments of Europe it is with candour and impartiality. He lays it down as a principle that until the dominion of France be confined within the limits of the late monarchy Great Britain cannot enjoy peace. It is his opinion that if the entire independence of Holland and Spain be not secured the French project to subjugate the British Kingdoms will never be abandoned. he predicts that the third war is not far distant. ' The author then gives recommendations to the nationr in order to prepare for the coming conflict. Sold by J. Budd, Crown and Mitre, Pall Mall; and Messrs.

The first edition published the preceding year. Frontispiece portrait folding facsimile showing Napoleon's writing plate of medal struck on Napoleon's marriage. 1 vols. 8vo. Napoleon at St. Helena. Warden was a Surgeon on the Northumberland which conveyed Napoleon to St. Helena. During the voyages and for time at Saint Helena Warden attended Napoleon.¶ The subject matter and criticism of the work sold many editions in the first year. The populace did not like the favorable depiction of Napoleon and the military and literary audience determining that Warden could not have been present at some of the things described took exception to his claims. Warden's French not being strong and his translator the Count de la Cases' English being confused in conveying Napoleon's comments apparently created discrepancies in the conversations as Napoleon later said that his conversations with Warden were quite different.
