CHAPTER VII THE ART OF BANKRUPTCY At the end of 1807 Jerome was still awaiting the decision of the Emperor about Westphalia's debt. But this dispute over his country's finances and the enormous claims of the Grand Army was not the only cause of trouble with Napoleon in the first month of Jerome's reign. One of the most prominent traits in his character was his passion for liberality to those whom he made his friends. Among all his circle there was no one whose services he esteemed more highly than Alexandre Le Camus. From the early days of the San Domingo expedition the young Creole had never left him. Jerome could do nothing without him--not even go to sleep, one of Napoleon's agents at Cassel wrote scornfully to his master. Since his patron had become a prince it was the general opinion that Le Camus added to his other duties the rather less than respectable task of assisting him in his love affairs. One supposed instance has been mentioned already; his talent in this line was to have more scope later. Yet the man was one who created an excellent impression at first sight. Possessed of good manners, calm, very correct in his language, yet affable, he conveyed an idea of distinction with which his mental and moral attributes accorded ill. His address, however, made the fortune of his family, who all followed him to Cassel. One of the King's first acts was to bestow on him a token of esteem in the form of the title of Count of Furstenstein, with the property of the old family of that name, and an income of 40,000 francs a year. Napoleon's annoyance when he heard of this was extreme, as was natural, seeing that Jerome, almost in the same breath, announced this creation and his own desperate financial condition. He had never heard of so...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Burlesque Napoleon: Being the Story of the Life and the Kingship of Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte, Youngest Brother of Napoleon the Great Although the study of a libertine's career could never in itself be particularly edifying, such a study, perhaps, need not be dismissed as entirely valueless when the libertine has played a distinct part, if a small one, in an important period of the world's history. This may be said to have been the case with Jerome Bonaparte. His chief claim to notoriety, indeed, lies in the fact that, among all princely followers of Don Juan, he distinguished himself by the pertinacity of his gallantry, from the days of his precocious exploits as a schoolboy of thirteen to those of the courtly, almost dignified, dissoluteness of an Imperial Prince of seventy. But, apart from being a monumental rake, Jerome had a career of wonderful variety and interest. If he was so entirely light in character as he seemed to be it was with the lightness of a cork in a Niagara of waters. Amid the tremendous movements of the Napoleonic period in Europe, Jerome was always to be found floating gaily on the top.

Book excerpt: The first volume of a groundbreaking and innovative popular biography of Napoleon Bonaparte, one of history's most complex and charismatic leaders 'Remarkable ... a satisfying, psychologically convincing account of Napoleon's early years and ascent to power. Even-handed and authoritative, this fascinating and highly enjoyable book will be an eye opener even to those who think they know the subject well' Sunday Times 'We are clearly in the presence of what will be a monumental work ... meticulously researched and well-written' Andrew Roberts, Literary Review Napoleon Bonaparte's rise to power was neither inevitable nor smooth; it was full of mistakes, wrong turns and pitfalls. During his formative years his identity was constantly shifting, his character ambiguous and his intentions often ill-defined. He was, however, highly ambitious, and it was this ruthless drive that advanced his career. This book examines the extraordinary evolution of Napoleon's character and the means by which at the age of thirty he became head of the most powerful country in Europe and skilfully fashioned the image of himself that laid the foundation of the legend that endures to this day.
