Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Memoirs of Marshal Bugeaud, Vol. 1 of 2: From His Private Correspondence and Original Documents, 1784-1849 The original work of M. d´Ideville extends to three large volumes, and where the whole work is so interesting it has been a matter of considerable difficulty to reduce it in length without sacrificing important passages. As is well said by a writer in the Quarterly Review, No. 312, p. 452, from whose article we have been kindly permitted to quote, ´Marshal Bugeaud, Duke of Isly, was certainly a more remarkable man than nine out of ten who have been the idol of a biographer, and his career is fertile in episodes or incidents characteristic of the times, and throwing light on history.´ The same article contains an extract from General Trochu´s L´Armée Fraçaise in 1867, so interesting to Englishmen that it may well be added to the Marshals life: - ´There is a highly-interesting communication from him, based on his Peninsular experience, to General Trochu, in which he gives a vivid description of the contrasted bearing of British and French soldiers in the field. Arrived at a thousand yards from the English line, our soldiers began exchanging their ideas in agitation, and hastening their march so that the ranks began to waver.
