i am!!! yeh thats true, we are a rare breed.
well our teacher's basically getting us to look at two main texts, the Napoleonic historigraphy book by Petr Geyl (a bit difficult to get since its been out of print for a long time, published 1948), and 'Napoleon: Profiles in Power' by Geoffrey Ellis. These are really good, very useful.

I did my major essay on the Battle of Trafalgar, so this is just a bunch of books on Napoleon I pulled from my bibliography:

J. Tulard, 'Napoleon: The Myth of the Saviour' (very helpful)

H.F.B. Wheeler, 'Napoleon and the Invasion of England: The Story of the Great Terror'

D. Thomson, 'Europe Since Napoleon'

G Lefebvre, trans. E.M. Evanson, 'Napoleon'

I hope that these help...

I had to drop extension because I couldn't find enough on Napoleon from the school or local library.

I got through the first 2 sections, but could find nothing for the rest! Argh!
