| Post subject: | Napoleon's green coat |
Fiddler's joke*about 'Nelson's green coat' set me idly Googling and up came a reference to Napoleon's green coat in a book I had never heard of. It is a record of conversations with Napoleon made by Henry Meynell (HMS Newcastle) during his exile on St Helena. Green coat apart, it makes most interesting reading. http://www.archive.org/stream/conversat ... t_djvu.txt * not a joke - see Fiddler's post on 'Christmas greetings' thread! |
