"The Knickerbocker, or New-York Monthly Magazine, May 1844" by Various is a magazine from the 1800s filled with a mix of stories, essays, and articles that shows what life was like back then. The writings included touch on different topics such as an analysis of Napoleon Bonaparte by Thomas Carlyle, and likely includes poems and thoughts on what was happening at the time. One of the main pieces gives a detailed look at Napoleon, trying to understand if he was a hero or someone whose hunger for power went too far; it makes the reader think about what it means to be great and what someone might give up to get there.
