I Am Napoleone Bounaparte

In the year 1910, a young man was taken to a New York hospital with a burning fever. When he recovered, he began speaking in the languages of French and Corsican. He said he was Napoleone Bounaparte and experts in French history were recruited from different universities to prove the man wrong - they couldn’t. Believing Napoleon has been reincarnated; officials of the American military placed the man in a locked room, surrounded by armed American soldiers. The belief Napoleon has been reincarnated pulls Amaury Benoit, a retired French Legionnaire, into a deadly plan. Receiving smuggled orders from the man who says he is Napoleon, Amaury commands an army of French soldiers hidden within the Susquehanna River Valley. His orders are to attack Binghamton Asylum and free him. Set in the beautiful Susquehanna River Valley of New York and the foreboding Binghamton Asylum for the chronic insane, I am Napoleone Bounaparte locks American and French soldiers in a desperate battle for possession of the greatest military genius who ever lived.
