Any Napoleon experts on here?

I'm looking for a copy of his memoirs in English. The ones he apparently wrote whilst in captivity on St Helena. When I search for memoirs of Napoleon I get hundreds of hits on the Bourrienne book:

Whilst I am sure this is a very good read I don't think these are the actual memoirs Napoleon wrote on St Helena but rather Bourrienne's memories of his time with Napoleon.

If I search for Napoleon Bonaparte as an author I can find this (volume 1 of 5):

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Oeuvres-Compl%C3%A8tes-I-...

This looks much more like the real deal but is in French. I can pick my way through a bit of French but 5 volumes would take me a year or two!

Does anyone know if the latter is the original memoir and if so is it available in English or, is the Bourrienne book the same thing?

How did you find that so quick! I just spent the last hour on Amazon looking!

Thanks for the links. It seems the name has trans morphed into "Napoleon on Napoleon" over the years. This is the latest edition I can find but at 350 odd pages it must be heavily abridged. The original was three volumes:
