Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Metrical History of the Life and Times of Napoleon Bonaparte I have no apology to offer for placing before the public the following collection of poems. If my scheme pos sesses no other merit than that of being unique, perhaps it will not be wholly condemned. The collection is by no means complete neither have I sought to make it so. From the vast number of poems published, hid away, and forgotten, I have dug out and retained only such as suited my fancy, and which go to make up a sort of poetical history of the life'* and times of the Great Emperor; leaving behind me far more in number'than I have used.

Download or read book Life of Napoleon Bonaparte Classic Reprint written by Charles MacFarlane and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-25 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of Napoleon Bonaparte The Publishers believe that in adding the Life of Napo 'eon Bonaparte to their biographical series, they are supplying a want that has long been felt by the public. Although several works have issued from the English press, in which the extraordinary career of Napoleon has been treated at great length, and although many disputed passages in his history have received the most minute and searching investigation, the Publishers are not acquainted with any volume which within a moderate compass and at a small price contains the essence of the researches of late years, and gives a fair and complete account of the life of the French soldier and statesman. The present work is intended to supply the deficiency. The re-establishment of the Napoleon dynasty in France served to increase the interest in the life and fortunes of the founder of this wonderful family. In these pages, it is hoped that a fitting memorial will be found of that hero who was once the terror of the nations, and whose deeds have since attracted the attention of the woild.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte An historian will one day arise, who will do justice to his merit as for myself, I do not even pretend to aspire to the honour of being his biographer; I am only about to relate all that I know of this extraordinary man, and which I believe I know well - that which I have seen and heard, and of which I have preserved numerous notes. With confidence I call him an extraordinary man - who, owing everything to himself, acquired the most absolute sway over a great and enlightened nation, obtained so many victories, subdued so many states, distributed crowns to his family, made and unmade kings, and who became nearly the most ancient sovereign in Europe, and who was, without doubt, the most distinguished of his age; such an individual cannot be called an ordinary man.

This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Napoleon Bonaparte, Vol. 1 of 4 The dilapidated villa in Corsica, where Napoleon passed his infantile years, still exists, and the thoughtful tourist loses himself in pensive reverie as he wanders over the lawn where those children have played - as he passes through the vegetable garden in the rear of the house, which enticed them to toil with their tiny hoes and spades, and as he struggles through the Wil derness of shrubbery, now running to wild waste, in the midst of which once could have been heard the merry shouts of these infantile kings and queens. Their voices are now hushed in death. But the records of earth can not show a more eventful drama than that enacted by these young Bonapartes between the cradle and the grave. There is, in a sequestered and romantic spot upon the ground, an isolated granite rock, of wild and rugged form, in the fissures of which there is some thing resembling a cave, which still retains the name of Napoleon's Grotto. This solitary rock was the favorite resort of the pensive and meditative child, even in his earliest years. When his brothers and sisters were in most happy companionship in the garden or on the lawn, and the air resounded with their mirthful voices, Napoleon would steal away alone to his 'loved retreat. There, in the long and sunny afternoons, with a book in his hand, he would repose, in a recumbent posture, for hours, gazing. Upon the broad expanse of the Mediterranean spread out before him, and upon the blue sky, which overarched his head. Who can imagine the visions which in those hours arose before the expanding energies of that wonderful mind?

He would leave bat, or ball, or kite, to set his toy troops in rank, and sweep them away with his toy gun. He would sit for hours, while he played that the mock foe fled from him, and their mock dead lay on the ground. Ma dame Bo na parte was quite poor.

This book was released on 2017-12-13 with total page 912 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte, Vol. 1 What M. De Las Casas states Napoleon to have said in May, 1816, on the manner of writing his history, corroborates the opi nion I have expressed. It proves that all the facts and observa tions he communicated or dictated were meant to serve as mate rials. We learn from the Memorial, that M. De Las Casas wrote daily, and that the manuscript was read over by Napoleon, who Often made corrections with his own hand. The idea. Of a journal pleased him greatly. He fancied it would be a work of which the world could afford no other example. But there are passages in which the order of events is deranged; in others, facts are misrepresented, and erroneous assertions are made, I apprehend, not altogether involuntarily.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of Army Life: Under Napoleon Bonaparte Some six or seven years since, my father, at the request of a member of his family, undertook to write down a few recollections of his former career while serving in the army under Napoleon. This work does not pretend to be a connected history of that period. As its title indicates, it is merely a series of reminiscences of events mostly within the experience of the writer; events which had impressed themselves more forcibly upon his mind than did other occurrences of equal or perhaps superior importance. At the time of writing these memoirs, the author was about eighty-four years of age, but his memory was unimpaired in regard to all matters relating to the early period of his life.
