    About this ebook

    "The Man of Destiny" is a famous play set in Italy during Napoleon's early career. It presents an amazingly witty story about Napoleon and a lady spy who meet at a hotel in Italy. The play can be best described as a battle of minds and wits between Napoleon and an equally visionary woman.
