Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Augusta, Empress of Germany "A sympathetic account of a very impressive career. The title of the book is happily chosen - Letitia Bonaparte devoted herself wholly to the welfare of her children, and in, the nature of things, Napoleon and his brothers and sisters figure in these pages almost as prominently as the mother. The translation is pleasantly written and will commend itself to many English readers." - Manchester Guardian. "As a sketch of a remarkable woman, Miss Tschudi´s work may be welcomed, for it will help the world at large to do tardy justice to a character of exceptional strength." - Saturday Review. "The translation is well done. The book is very readable, and though it has no pretentions to be an important piece of history, it is at least an interesting sketch of a very remarkable Mother of Kings." - Guardian. "She failed to fill the contemporaneous eye. Now perspective has put her in her proper place. It is there that we see her in the present volume." - Pall Mall Gazette.
