This is a charming, bittersweet tale of a defeated hero, a remote island exile, and a lovely young girl who enriches the great man's final years. It begins as Napoleon, defeated and a prisoner, arrives at the island of St. Helena to begin his exile where he meets lovely young Betsy Balcome - high-spirited, outspoken, and the only French-speaking member of her family. Betsy acts as interpreter for the hero, and through this inspired rendering of their great friendship, this colorful conqueror emerges as a compelling human figure... an extraordinary man and a transcendent genius. Here is a stirring narrative of magnificent tenderness and understanding, the moving story of the great man - and THE LAST LOVE.
