Excerpt from The Annual Biography and Obituary, Vol. 6: For the Year 1822 History is the grouping of figures in a picture; the humbler province of biography is the delineation of the whole-length resemblance of a particular individual. But it sometimes happens that the memoirs of an illustrious public character are so complicated with general history, as to render them an epitome of the principal events of the times in which he flourished. This observation will be found to apply with peculiar force to the life and achievements of Napoleon Buonaparte; whose biography, properly discussed, must lose its individuality, and become, to a certain extent, the annals, not merely of the country which was the theatre of his own exploits, but of all the states, and of all the leading characters concerned in their government and administration, civil or military, in any way connected with it. Napoleon Buonaparte (or, as he has himself chosen to write the name, Bonaparte, ) was born at Ajaccio, a small town in Corsica, on August 15th, 1769.
