This article presents information about the book "Another Caesar," by Alfred Neumann, translated from the German by Eden Paul and Cedar Paul. There are thousands of facts in the book which have been copied directly from notes which the writer once took with the idea that he might give them life if occasion arose. Even the hero is dead. Louis Napoleon himself was never very much life. Neumann has understood the pathos of his hero's position and has gone to enough trouble to erect a theory about his character but he has presented him in a series of episodes and conversations.
