This book was released on 2017-05-26 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of the Queens of France, Vol. 1 of 2 Clovis was the first chief who bore the title of King of France; for although several of his pre decessors had acquired great advantage in their attacks upon the Romans, hitherto they had ulti mately been repulsed with such vigour that they were frequently obliged to re-cross the Rhine; and Clovis was the first who resided as sole conqueror in France. The trifling importance attached to the greater number of the first race of kings, the similarity of their names, and, above all, the continual division of their states, inevitably introduced a degree of confusion into their history. Prior to the entire subjugation of Gaul by the Franks under Clovis, four French chiefs had succes sively reigned over a part of the country as kings; but very little is known of them, France having been at that time shrouded in the mist of barbarism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Madame De Remusat, Vol. 2 of 2: 1802-1808 IN the first volume of this work I have attempted to retrace the chief events of my grandmother's life, and I have also narrated the circumstances which induced her to rewrite the Memoirs nu happily destroyed in 1815. I considered it essen tial to a right comprehension and appreciation of her views, that the reader should learn how she had been brought up, what were the position and circumstances of her parents, for what reasons she accepted a place at Bonaparte's Court, through what phases of enthusiasm, hope, and disenchant ment she passed, how by degrees liberal Opinions gained a hold upon her, and what influence her son, when he began to make a figure both in society and in political life, exercised over her.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs; Duchesse De Gontaut, Vol. 1 of 2: Gouvernante to the Children of France During the Restoration, 1773-1836 The first years of my life were passed very much like those of every only child who is loved and petted by a tender mother, and rather spoiled by an aged father; mine denied me nothing, not even a carriage of my own when I was only twelve years old. I had a great many friends, and I was happy, very happy, in those youthful delights which we are apt to recall in after years with a sigh. At the age of seven Iwas presented for baptism by His Royal Highness (louis XVIII.) and Her Royal Highness the Comtesse de Provence in the chapel at Versailles. I wore on this occasion a grand habit and a grand panier. My excessive pride in this costume created great amusement in the apartments of the Queen, Marie Antoinette, where my mother took me after the ceremony. As my mother was a connection of the Duchesse de Polignac, she often took me to Versailles; there Iused to see Madame Royale, who was younger than I, and the poor little Dauphin, a lovely and delightful child.

Download or read book Memoirs of Queen Hortense Vol 1 of 2 written by Lascelles Wraxall and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-26 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Queen Hortense, Vol. 1 of 2: Mother of Napoleon III Hort e is the member of the Napoleon family A most attracts sympathy. This deli Cate and yet haughty queen, when she descended from the throne, when she had ceased to be a queen, when she at length sought shelter in the tomb, weary of life and exhausted, still remained among us as the queen of flowers. Flowers have preserved the memory of Josephine's daughter, and they did not turn from her, as SO many of her friends did, when She was no longer the daughter of the omnipotent Emperor, but of the exile. She still lived among the flowers, and Gavarny, the great poet of flowers, has erected a most touching monument to the queen in, his fleurs anime'es. On a hill of Hor tensias reposes the picture of Queen Hortense, and in the distance, like a departing mirage, the domes and towers of Paris may be seen. Soli tude prevails around, but in the air soars the Imperial Eagle. The Imperial mantle with the golden bees spreads out behind it like a comet's tail, the dark red ribbon and cross of the Legion of Honour are round its neck, and in its beak it bears a richly-covered Spray of Crown Imperial.
