It’s no secret I have a weakness when it comes to Napoleon. The biggest disappointment would be to find real evidence that Napoleon was a puppet shill traitor against humanity like so many others I once admired. 

Although, there are a few paintings with Napoleon tucking his hand into his vest or coat, a Masonic gesture, I still have no reason to believe he was a mason sellout like so many others.

During my decades of researching Napoleon, my view of him shifted away from the “official narrative”. I was indoctrinated to view him as a power hungry jerk tyrant.  It took a long time, to develop a more nuanced view of him as an actual human being.
