    Norwood Young, whose younger brother Dalhousie Young was a concert pianist of some renown, born in India in 1866, was born in 1860 and died in 1943. His written works included a work on Rome, George Washington, Carlyle and three important books on Napoleon, all written during the centenary anniversary years of Napoleon’s life, namely, on St Helena, on Elba and on Napoleon’s early years. Indeed, he explicitly acknowledges this in no way casual coincidence in his book on Napoleon on St Helena as follows: “”Napoleon in Exile, Elba” was published on 31st March, 1914, one hundred years after the event with which it commenced, the entry of the Allies into Paris on 31st March 1814. This volume, in like manner, are published on 1st March, 1915, the centenary of the opening point, the landing of Napoleon near Cannes, on 1st March, 1815.” [p.10] He was an assiduous researcher, visiting the sites of his books, notably Rome, Elba and even St Helena where he stayed five weeks around February 1814 in Bertrand’s house, Hutts Gate, hosted by Mr James Deason, farmer on the Longwood Estate.
