If the monarchy of Francis II. Has been able to resist violent shocks, it is because it has a war like people, and a good system of recruiting its forces be cause its geographical position is singularly favorable for defense, and lastly, because, in great danger, it is rescued from shipwreck by Russia or England. The position of Austria towards us was a false one this was made so, first, by the revolution, which produced the first coalition second, by the invasion of Switzerland, which produced the second coalition; and third, by the annexa tions of Italy to France, which caused the third coalition.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Napoleon the First, Vol. 3 Such was the fresh attitude which Bonaparte had just assumed in his last manifestoes, after his brilliant triumphs over the Prussian monarchy. This change which had been prepared for long before, did not at once strike all minds, nor were its consequences immediately felt, but it deserves the more notice because it marks the exact period at which France lost that marvellous power of attraction which she derived from her revolution, and which gave her her temporary influence. Hitherto, in spite of all the acts of violence and treachery which had dispelled their illusions, the nations had continued to regard her as an instrument of deliverance and liberation: they henceforth began to consider her as the fearful personifica tion of conquest, Oppression, and despotism. At the time of our entrance into Poland, we had striking evidence of the existence of these sentiments among a people who by nature, by tradition, and by interest were the'least disposed to share them.

This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte, Vol. 1 of 4 For a time, I entertained the idea of noticing, one by one, the numerous errors which have been written respecting Napoleon; but I have renounced a task, which would have been too laborious to myself, and very tedious to the reader. I shall, therefore, only correct those which come within the plan of my work, and which are connected with facts, to a more accurate knowledge Of which than any other person can possess, I may lay claim. There are men who imagine that nothing done by Napoleon will ever be forgotten; but must not the slow but inevitable influence Of time be expected to Operate with respect to him The effect Of that influence is, that the most important event of an epoch soon sinks almost imperceptibly, and almost disregarded, into the immense mass of historical facts. Time, in its progress, diminishes the probability as well as the interest of such an event, as it gradually wears away the most durable monuments.

Fauvelet De Bourrienne Soldiers l - The territory of the Confederation has been violated. The Austrian general commanded us to flee the very aspect of his arms, and abandon our allies. I am here with the speed of lightning. Soldiers! I was surrounded by you when the Austrian monarch came to my bivouac in Moravia: you heard him implore my clemency, and swear to me the amity of a brother. Victors as we were in three wars, Austria owes all to our generosity: triply is she perjured! Our past success holds forth a sure pledge of the victory that awaits us. Forward, then!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Napoleon Buonaparte, Vol. 3 Napoleon on leaving Schonbrunn returned to France by way of Munich, where he waited for the ratification of the treaty by Austria. TO convey the intelligence as soon as possible, military posts were placed on the heights at certain distances, who were to give the signal by white flags in the day and by bonfires kindled at night. The news of the ratification came the third day of the Emperor's stay at the capital of Bavaria. He set out next day for Fontainebleau, where he arrived a few hours before the Em press, who had left Strasburg for Paris a month before.. There were marks of uneasiness on her countenance and an appearance of constraint in 'napolepn's behavior to her. She was alarmed at the circumstance of the private communication between her room and the Emperor's having been shut Up. They returned to Paris on the 14th of November, where the presence of the King of Sax ony sometimes relieved the awkwardness of a téte c'z téte but it was easy to remark a considerable alteration in the features of the Empress and a silent reserve on the part of the Emperor.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Napoleon III, Vol. 3 of 4: Derived From State Records, From Unpublished Family Correspondence, and From Personal Testimony This party, during the latter half of Louis Philippe's reign, was, indeed, more active and more en évz'dence than Orleanist or Republican writers have chosen to admit. There was the famous Société du Dix Décembre; the Club des Culottes de Peau, composed mainly of old officers of the Empire, as De Montholon, Voisin, and Bouffet de Montauban; and there was the Club des Cotillons, where Bonapartist ladies - Mesdames Salvage de Faverolles, Hamelin, and regnault-saint-jean-d'angely - talked treason behind their fans. The wits were merry, however, at the old grognards, at the ladies who hoped to walk through a cotillon back to the Empire, at the journalists who, with the elegant and spiritual Mocquard at their head, kept the Napoleonic tradition alive, and at the hero of Strasburg and Boulogne. Louis Philippe was at last persuaded that he had buried the mighty legend under the dome of the Invalides, and put the sword of Austerlitz on the same mouldering cushion with that of Charlemagne.
