An excellent exhibit on display highlighted by the fitting quote:

"I found the crown of France in the gutter and I picked it up"- Napoléon Bonaparte

What kind of man thinks he can change the world? Napoléon Bonaparte has been the subject of intense fascination since his rise to power. This exhibition features more than 250 objects belonging to Napoléon and those close to him. These personal items—many seen for the first time in North America—shine a light on the extraordinary life and personality of one of history's pivotal figures.

Ah, if the tour would only come to Idaho.

Sheesh, how about this for a quote: "I found an old potato in the gutter and picked it up!"

Guess that would make me the king of ..... IRELAND!!! [:D]
