A few year's ago, following the passing away of a family member, I came into the possession of letters and documents left by my wife's maternal ancestor, Samuel Bernard (1773 - 1853), one of the young savants, and Bonaparte's chemistry tutor at the time, recruited for the Egyptian Campaign. As I am a keen history reader (and apparently the first such in the family to lay his hands on these documents) I delved in headlong to research this man and his relationship with Bonaparte. Dozens of books and hundreds of hours of research later, I have poured my findings, integrating the new information gleaned from Samuel Bernard's documents and letters, into a fictionalised but plausible reconstruction of his life. My question is, if it's acceptable to the members of this forum for me to provide you with a link to my book? Thanks in advance for an honest answer, Jan
