Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bernadotte and Napoleon, 1763 1810 This is the second of a series of three volumes. The first volume, under the title of Bernadotte The First Phase, dealt with the life of Bernadotte under the ancien regz'me, during the Terror, and under the Directory, from January 1763, to the Revolution of Brumaire in November 1799. The present volume tells the story of his relations with Napoleon under the Consulate and under the First Empire down to September 1810, when he was elected Prince Royal of Sweden. The third volume, will follow him through the remainder of his career as Heir Apparent to the Swedish throne, and as King of Sweden and Norway. The subject has been approached without bias, and with a desire to allow events and documents to speak for themselves. Besides consulting the regular sources of contemporary evidence, the author has made a careful search among the unpublished records of our Foreign Office for any information that might be of interest to British, Irish, and American readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bernadotte, the First Phase, 1763-1799 This book is a study of the character, and of the first phase of the career, of Bernadotte. His character has been described as "une enigme indechiffrable"; and his career has hardly a parallel for adventure and variety. A lawyer's son, a youth of seventeen years of age, ran away in 1780 from his home at Pau, and enlisted in a marching regiment. He served for more than ten years in the ranks of the army of King Louis XVI.; rose, after the outbreak of the Revolution, to the rank of general; held, under the Directory, the posts of general-in-chief, ambassador, and Minister of War; became a Marshal and a Prince of the First Empire; and, after taking part in nearly all the great events of one of the most eventful epochs in the world's history, was, in 1810, elected Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Sweden. Having added the crown of Norway to that of Sweden, he remained the real ruler of Scandinavia until his death in 1844; and left behind him, in his adopted country, a good name, and a dynasty which has taken root. More than one of his contemporaries climbed to giddier heights; but none, after a steeper ascent, obtained a surer footing. To satisfy curiosity about Bernadotte is no easy matter.
