Napoleon Surrenders (originally titled Napoléon se rend aux Anglais) is a historical book by French author and historian Gilbert Martineau, chronicling the events surrounding Napoleon's abdication after Waterloo and his subsequent surrender to the British. The English translation was crafted by British writer and Bloomsbury Group member Frances Partridge.

Gilbert Martineau served as the curator of the French national properties on the island of Saint Helena (including Napoleon’s Longwood Estate). This gave him unique access to local archives, which he used to detail the critical weeks between Napoleon's abdication and his embarkation for exile. Google Books.
