Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Secret History of the Court and Cabinet of St. Claud, Vol. 1 of 2: In a Series of Letters From a Gentleman at Paris to a Nobleman in London; Written During the Months of August, September and October, 1805 The present work contains particular of the great Napoleon not to be found in any other publication, and forms an interesting addition to the information generally known about him. The writer of the Letters (whose name is said to have been Stewarton, and who had been a friend of the Empress Josephine in her happier, if less brilliant days) gives full accounts of the lives of nearly all Napoleon´s Ministers and Generals, in addition to those of a great number of other characters, and an insight into the inner life of those who formed Napoleon´s Court. All sorts and conditions of men arc dealt with - adherents who have come over from the Royalist camp, as well as those who have won their way upwards as soldiers, as did Napoleon himself. In fact, the work abounds with anecdotes of Napoleon, Talleyrand, Fouché, and a host of others, and astounding particulars are given of the mysterious disappearance of those persons who were unfortunate enough to incur the displeasure of Napoleon.
