Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Narrative of Memorable Events in Paris: Preceding the Capitulation, and During the Occupancy of That City by the Allied Armies, in the Year 1814; Being Extracts From the Journal of a Detenu, Who Continued a Prisoner, on Parole, in the French Capital, From the Year 1803 to 1814; Also, Anecdotes The Editor of the present Volume had the manuscript presented to him by an old and confidential friend, who has been a resident at Paris ever since the year 1803, and whose principal injunction was, that it should be faithfully and correctly conveyed to the world through the medium of the English press. - The laudable and insatiable avidity with which that friend sought information on every subject of art, science, literature, and the political state of nations, led him to visit France, &c. during the short peace of 1802-3. He was returning to England, and had reached Calais, when the peevish arrete of Buonaparte (22d May 1803) was forwarded to that port, commanding the arrest of all Englishmen.
