Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Crime of 1812 and Its Retribution: A New Rendering Into English of Labaume's "Relation Circonstanciee De La Campagne De Russie En 1812" The most striking chapters in the book are those which describe the ghastly catastrophe of the headlong rush of the wreck of the Grand Army across the territory which Napoleon had desolated. Like a wounded mastodon, crippled and bleeding at every pore, the once invincible army staggers blindly, madly, through the snow, intent only on escape, until at last, a mere shadow of its former self, starving, frost-bitten, despairing, it reaches safety in Prussia. More vivid word-painting may be found else where, but here are the words of a man who saw it all and who tells us what he saw.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: « Bérézina ! » Ce mot aujourd’hui passé dans le langage courant illustre à lui seul combien l’expérience de la campagne de Russie est ancrée dans la mémoire nationale. Cette mémoire est, du reste, partagée par les Russes qui font de 1812 un élément fondateur de leur histoire. L’affrontement des deux empires, alliés depuis 1807, qui se déroule dans la démesure avant de tourner au désastre, offre une dramaturgie qui se prête au récit : phase de préparation, début de la campagne jusqu’à son apothéose lors de l’entrée dans Moscou, bientôt en flammes, puis chute, avec cette lente retraite dramatique effectuée pour l’essentiel à pied, dans le froid glacial de l’hiver russe. Au-delà de la narration des principaux épisodes de cette expédition, une réflexion s’impose sur le traumatisme qu’a représenté cette tragique campagne. À travers des sources nombreuses, une littérature riche, Jacques-Olivier Boudon s’attache à croiser les approches pour nous aider à comprendre le rôle majeur de cet épisode dans la construction des mémoires européennes. Jacques-Olivier Boudon, grand spécialiste et auteur de nombreux ouvrages sur l’époque napoléonienne, professeur d’histoire contemporaine à l’université Paris IV-Sorbonne, est président de l’Institut Napoléon.

This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French invasion of Russia, known in Russia as the Patriotic War of 1812 and in France as the Russian Campaign (French: Campagne de Russie), began on 24 June 1812 when Napoleon's Grande Armée crossed the Neman River in an attempt to engage and defeat the Russian army. Napoleon hoped to compel Tsar Alexander I of Russia to cease trading with British merchants through proxies in an effort to pressure the United Kingdom to sue for peace. The official political aim of the campaign was to liberate Poland from the threat of Russia. Napoleon named the campaign the Second Polish War to gain favor with the Poles and provide a political pretext for his actions. The Grande Armée was a very large force, numbering 680,000 soldiers (including 300,000 of French departments). Through a series of long marches Napoleon pushed the army rapidly through Western Russia in an attempt to bring the Russian army to battle, winning a number of minor engagements and a major battle at Smolensk in August. Napoleon hoped the battle would mean an end of the march into Russia, but the Russian army slipped away from the engagement and continued to retreat into Russia, while leaving Smolensk to burn. Plans Napoleon had made to quarter at Smolensk were abandoned, and he pressed his army on after the Russians. As the Russian army fell back, Cossacks were given the task of burning villages, towns and crops. This was intended to deny the invaders the option of living off the land. These scorched-earth tactics greatly surprised and disturbed the French, as the willingness of the Russians to destroy their own territory and harm their own people was difficult for the French to comprehend. The actions forced the French to rely on a supply system that was incapable of feeding the large army in the field. Starvation and privation compelled French soldiers to leave their camps at night in search of food. These men were frequently confronted by parties of Cossacks, who captured or killed them.
Download or read book Guerre de Russie 1812 written by Jean-Baptiste Gilbert baron Dufour and published by Séguier Editions. This book was released on 2007 with total page 544 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Totalement inédit, rédigé dans les années 1820, cet important ouvrage, toujours conservé dans la famille, constitue une nouvelle et désormais incontournable source de l'histoire de la Campagne de Russie. Parce que le fruit de recherches et d'observations et rédigé par un esprit rigoureux qui fut à la fois témoin et acteur de cette tragique campagne, cette Guerre de Russie 1812 apporte un éclairage nouveau à l'événement. Rappelant la géopolitique de l'Europe en 1812, présentant de manière précise les deux armées en présence et le théâtre des opérations, Dufour rend compte de tous les mouvements de troupes et des combats qui ont marqué cette guerre. Ordonnateur de la Garde, en contact journalier avec l'Empereur, l'auteur évoque également les problèmes d'approvisionnement ou médicaux et la vie quotidienne du soldat. Sa plume fidèle dépeint, avec talent et émotion, les misères et les malheurs des armées. Fidèle de Napoléon, il jette un regard lucide, mais parfois critique sur ses décisions ou sur les actions de ses maréchaux et généraux.
