Letter to Tippoo Saib
by Napoleon Bonaparte
As published in Joseph Knight's 1896 Napoleon's Addresses: Selections from the Proclamations, Speeches and Correspondence of Napoleon Bonaparte, edited by Ida M. Tarbell.

You are, of course, already informed of my arrival on the banks of the Read Sea, with a numerous and invincible army.

Eager to deliver you from the iron yoke of England, I hasten to request that you will send me, by the way of Muscate or Mocha, an account of the political situation in which you are.

I also wish that you would send to Suez, or Grand Cairo, some able man, in your confidence, with whom I may confer.
