The Prince Imperial

Napoleon Eugene Louis Jean Joseph Bonaparte (1856-1879), was the only son of Emperor Napoleon III and Empress Eugenie of France. After his father was dethroned in 1870, the family went into exile, and moved to England. In England he trained as a soldier, and was killed, aged 23, in the Anglo-Zulu war.
