About this ebook
'The Tragedy of St. Helena' is a book that covers the events that led up to Napoleon Bonaparte's interment in St. Helena, a British Overseas Territory and the subsequent events that followed until his body was reburied in France. He was exiled there by the British government in 1821, following his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo, and not long after being under custody of the British, died at the island. Later, the French government of Louis Philippe I requested that Napoleon's remains be repatriated to France and, on 15 October 1840, his body was exhumed and later reburied at the Invalides in Paris, in an event known as the Retour des cendres.
