Napoleon's Crimes

Over 250,000 civilians were enslaved around the world, racial laws were introduced, mass deportations took place, hit squads and concentration camps were set up, and gas was used to massacre large groups of people. Yet this was 140 years before Hitler and the Holocaust, and these crimes were committed on the orders of a Frenchman: Napoleon, Emperor of France. In this riveting - and controversial - expose, historian Claude Ribbe reveals for the first time Napoleon's shocking legacy, and why he was so admired by Hitler.
