The May 2010 edition of History Today (UK) features an article on the extraordinary rendetion of Napoleon Bonaparte following his surrender to the British authorities in 1815. In it, Norman MacKenzie analyses the legal minefield in which the British government found itself following Napoleon's peaceful surrender, the issues surrounding his captivity and the occasionally farcical legal wranglings that took place as Napoleon's fate was decided.
