What happened to Napoleon?

St. Helena in Perspective The choice of St. Helena was no coincidence. Unlike Elba, this island was not to be as pleasant a location. In the middle of the South Atlantic, thousands of kilometers from any major land-mass, escape was now virtually impossible. It was here that Napoleon was to die in 1821

Napoleon’s Death Some think Napoleon died of cancer. Others think he died from toxic fumes from the wallpaper in the house he spent the last 6 years of his life. (Arsenic)
