About this book

"The Man of Destiny" by Bernard Shaw is a play written in 1897, set during Napoleon's early Italian campaign. After victory at the Battle of Lodi, Napoleon discovers crucial military dispatches have been stolen. When a mysterious woman appears claiming her brother took them, a battle of wits ensues.

As tensions mount, the truth about the woman's identity and Napoleon's marriage hangs in the balance.
