Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Napoleon in Caricature, Vol. 1 of 2: 1795-1821
In a former work the writer has bestowed special attention on those Napoleonic caricatures which directly relate to the threatened invasion of England (1796-1806) and the incidents of the Great Terror. It will be nu necessary to repeat what has already been said con cerning them, although they will all find a place in the general lists given as Appendices. An endeavour will be made in these pages to bring into strong relief those caricatures which are typical of the general scheme of this form of attack on Napoleon, or which throw new light either on his public 01 private life, or the state of public feeling concerning him. Prominence will be given to several prints, which, notwithstanding their obvious interest and importance, are either wholly or partially unknown.
