Nelson doused Bonaparte's expert appraisal of his prospects of taking over the spice trades from England when Nelson smashed Napoleon's fleet at the Battle of the Nile. He and his men were torn apart from his force and had to find a way back to France. Fortunately for the study of ancient Egypt, Napoleon's forces were stuck there and took up much of this time studying the land and its peoples. They made quite an outing of it especially since Napoleon had brought along many of the best minds of France. http://www.lindahall.org/events_exhi...on/learn.shtml
