This is a very entertaining book, written in Journal form by Josephine Bonaparte. This is the second book in the trilogy, the first book covering the period of the Great Terror. This book covers the early years of Josephine's marriage to Napoleon Bonaparte , including Bonaparte's Campaigns in Italy and Egypt as his power base grows. It ends as he assumes power in France. You would think it would be stilted being in diary form, but the book works very well and gives a very interesting snapshot into Josephine's life and France during this tumultuous period. I look forward to reading the final part of this delightful series. (

An intriguing story in terms of personalities, history, and plot twists. I found it thoroughly enjoyable and will assuredly read the last book in the series. (

As interesting as the first book in the series. Read very quickly over the course of a week. (

The second Josephine B. book and my favourite of the three. While the story of Josephine's life of how to got to the point of meeting Napoleon, I find him to be the more interesting character so I liked the storyline of this book. I did find it hard to understand why he was so obsessed with her - Gulland could have explored that more. (

These fictionalized diaries of Josephine Bonaparte, based in fact and brought vividly to life, are a real treat to read. They kept me enthralled from beginning to end. (
