Napoleon Essay Footnotes/Endnotes

 Footnotes/Endnotes tell the reader where you got your information from.  In our case you will be connecting your footnotes/endnotes to the quotes you are using in each paragraph so I know where you got your quote from.  It is similar to a bibliography.  Generally you will have your quotes/citations with the end/footnote and then a separate bibliography.  

Each quote will get a number (footnote or endnote formatting in word if you are typing) and then it will take you to the foot/end note with the same number.  Here is the info you will provide:
