Solitaire is popular in the United States and has been popular in France since the early 19th century. Several sources report that Napoleon played this game during his exile, although these claims are unproven. Lady Adelaide Cadogan translated this game into English in her 1870 book, which gave her credit for bringing this game to English-speaking countries. Lady Adelaide Cadogan's book also contains illustrations that helped players structure the game flow.
