Napoleon Part 1: The Humble Corsican

You’ve heard the name Napoleon Bonaparte. But who was he, really?
In 1769 a boy is born on the Mediterranean island of Corsica. He
will go on to become an emperor - a virtual god in his adopted
homeland, a nemesis to his international foes. So how does Napoleon
become the most powerful man on Earth? And why doesn’t he stop,
even once he has it all? A Noiser production, written by Jeff
Dawson. This is Part 1 of 6. For ad-free listening, exclusive
