A level History - Napoleon

I need a character summary/profile for Napoleon Bonaparte from the French Revolution topic. Does anyone have a good one or know where I can find a good one?
Hi, history uni student here. I did the French Revolution depth study at A-level (AQA exam board). If you mean like an online profile of him (as opposed to an academic text), then I always use Britannica, link to his profile here: https://www.britannica.com/biography/Napoleon-I They can be quite long and overly detailed (e.g. about childhood and family) but they usually have everything you'd need from a biography.
From a more narrative perspective, history.com is usually good: https://www.history.com/topics/france/napoleon More readable but less detail
Hope this helps! I loved the depth study, especially Napoleon
