Napoleon Bonaparte
The Fruits Of My Research - Napoleon Bonaparte
Revolutionary French travel writer of the early 19th Century. His arrogant attitude and insulting comments on other nations made him hugely popular in his home country, but reviled abroad (a little like PJ O’Rourke is today). Such was his acid tongue that his publisher, Karl Baedeker, would occasionally and deliberately mis-translate his words when producing editions of his books in languages other than the original French.
