Summary

This study of the Napoleonic Exiles in America, which was first published in 1905, centers around "the unfortunate colonial enterprise called Champ d'Asile on the banks of the Trinity River in Texas. That undertaking had in itself no great historical importance, but the circumstances surrounding it throw, it is believed, a not uninteresting light upon the diplomatic situation after the downfall of Napoleon. The part of the narrative which relates to the "Napoleonic Confederation" was read at the meeting of the American Historical Association, in 1904, at Chicago."
