OverviewIn May of 1798, a huge expeditionary fleet assembled at the French port of Toulon. 13 ships of the line, 30 brings, and nearly 250 corvettes, gunboats, galleys, and merchant ships overflowed the port, with many more anchored in the bays of Lazaret and Balaguier. The objective of the fleet was top secret, even to its senior officers and commanders, even to the Minister of War. Speculation was rife, and among the 20,000 or so soldiers, and many thousands of sailors, the belief was that 28-year-old Napoleon Bonaparte was to command an invasion of royalist Britain, the only remaining enemy of republican France.
