Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Empress Eugenie Of some of the scenes comprising the last act, I was an insignificant spectator. One was the illusory French victory at Saarbrucken, when the boy Prince first saw the realities of war another, the day long combat round Sedan, described in these pages by the Emperor Napoleon himself. I owe this document to the good offices of M. Adrien Hebrard, Editor of the Temps. To M. Gaston Calmette, Editor of the Figaro, I am doubly indebted first, for his eloquent and couvin cing defence of the Empress Eugenie; and, next, for M. Lucien Alphonse Baudet's picture of the Empress in her Hampshire home - a romantic narrative, fascina ting alike by its poetical charm and its verisimilitude, and worthy of the distinguished name of its creator.

The men who loved him, faithful to his memory, would think that they were guilty of treachery if they gave to the public, that is to say, to the hatred and anger of some, to. The scepticism or raillery of others, his strange personality. On the other hand, those who are interested in the Empire, whether novelists or historians, lack the data upon which to build an exact account, so that the present generation looks upon the twenty years of the reign of Napoleon III.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of an Empress: Eugenie De Montijo These final pages are written as a necessary conclusion to our trilogy of the women of the Second Empire. Having sketched the pictures of Court and Society with a pen as discreet as possible, although by some it has been termed a frivolous pen, we had to determine in a wider manner the historical bearing of an important personality. Through circumstances, more than by her own will, she was the leading figure among the women of that Court and of that Society, and her position as such was naturally due to her sovereign rank, her influence for good or evil, and the extraordinary series of fateful events in which she took part. This is an opportune time for recalling the career of such a personality, because we have not yet reached the period when gossip and reiterations of a commonplace nature shall run their free course unfettered by the hand of fate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Empress Eugenie, Vol. 1 I mention these facts to show that Napoleon III did not marry "beneath him" as some of his unreasonable critics have said. Some very foolish and groundless statements have been made to this effect. I simply wish to controvert them. The family of Porto-Carrero, Counts of Montijo, includes the Cardinal of that name, who played a part during the reign of Charles II of Austria and descends in direct line from the ancient patrician family that in 1339 gave the city of Genoa its first Doge. Dona Maria Francisca de Porto Carrero, Countess of Montijo, writer of repute, who was prosecuted on the charge of turning her house into a Jansenist meeting place, was one of the Empress ancestors and lived in the beginning of the 19th century. She was the correspondent of the Marquise de Lage de Volude, former lady in waiting to the Princesse de Lamballe, and at one time, during the Reign of Terror, was a refugee in Spain. Sovereigns, statesmen, soldiers, churchmen, are consequently found among the Empress ancestors. And perhaps I may, in passing, add here that her sister married the Duke of Alba and Berwick, who was lineally descended from James II, king of England. Her father, Don Cipriano Guzman Palafox y Porto-Carrero, Count of Teba, was the youngest brother of Eugenio, Count of Montijo, who, in the beginning of the last century, was associated with, every liberal and even revolutionary movement in Spain.

This book was released on 2018-02-08 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The True Story of the Empress Eugenie I have read that one of the Professors of Law at Harvard University, wishing to impress on the minds of his students how difficult it is to discover the truth, told five of them each to write an inde pendent report of an accident they had all witnessed simultaneously. The result of this was that when at the next lecture the reports were read, they all proved completely different. This was only a new manner of arriving at the old verity so picturesquely expressed by Diogenes, and resounding ominously through the centuries in the words of Pilate, who when Jesus Christ told him that He had come into the world to give testi mony to the Truth, said What is Truth? What is then the truth in regard to Eugenie de Montijo, who obtruded herself upon the history of the nineteenth century to such an extent that she and her husband became the most conspicuous personages of their day?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Empress Eugenie, Vol. 2 When the Prince-President was proclaimed Emperor of the French and had been recognized as such by the chief powers of Europe, the Emperor of Russia, acknowledging Napoleon's official announcement of the fact, saw fit to alter somewhat the style of address always used between sovereigns. In the official letter delivered to the Tuileries court by the Russian ambassador, Count Paul Kisseleff, Napoleon, instead of being addressed as "Monsieur men Frere" (Sire, my brother), the form employed among sovereigns, was addressed as "Monsieur et Bon Ami," (Sire and Good Friend), which was the form used when writing to the President of the Republic This modification was not without importance and caused a considerable amount of surprise in imperial circles at Paris. As Napoleon well said on one occasion, "its effect was to give a sort of accidental and transitory stamp to the character of Russia's recognition of the new government; it was rather shutting out the new ruler from the circle of European sovereigns." At the same time, with considerable astuteness, the Czar Nicolas, who was hiding his hand and biding his time, treated the French ambassador to St. Petersburg, General de Castelbajac, with the greatest cordiality.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Eugenie, Empress of the French: A Popular Sketch I am encouraged by the success which attended my translation of Marie Antoinette, by Clara Tschudi, to offer to the public a second monograph by the same gifted authoress, whose renown as a writer dates from its appearance in 1889, previously to which she had undertaken only a few short essays and biographies. Eugenie, Empress of the French met with an enthusiastic reception in Scandinavia, and has since been widely read in excellent translations both in Germany and Italy. At the request of the authoress, I have used the second edition of her work, and have ventured to append a few notes, taken from English newspapers, referring mainly to the Prince Imperial and Dr. Evans. Professor Kirkpatrick, of Edinburgh University, has a high opinion of Clara Tschudi as a writer, and has written to me: "Her Eugenie, which I read with great interest in the original, and reviewed favourably, seemed to me at the time well worthy of being translated into English."
