For those lucky folks in the right cities, the Treasures of Napoleon exhibit, a treasure trove of personal artifacts belonging to our favorite French dictator, is touring the United States. It opened in Philadelphia and will be making its triumphal march through California, Missouri, D.C., Florida, South Carolina, Oklahoma, and Louisiana. I’m very miffed that it doesn’t seem to be making a stop in New York.

There’s also a fabulous post up about it on History Hoydens by Amanda Elyot, including pictures of locks of Josephine’s hair (darker than I expected from her portraits!) and Josephine’s prayer book.
