Book excerpt: Excerpt from The French Revolution From the Age of Louis of to the Coming of Napoleon When Dickens, in the winter of 1859, essayed the little task of making a picturesque story, he requested Carlyle to lend him some books which the Sage of Chelsea had used in the production of his French Revol ution. Carlyle, making more noise in his silence-room than the rest of the world put together, replied with grim humour by despatching to Gad's Hill two cart loads of authorities. These supplied the novelist with sufficient facts and local colour to enable him to write A Tale of Two Cities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the turmoil and tragedy of the French Revolution to the rise and fall of the enigmatic figure of Napoleon Bonaparte, the history of France between 1789 and 1815 is one of the most enduringly fascinating - and widely-studied - periods of history. In this volume, the renowned historian William Doyle provides a new perspective on several key themes within the history of this period - from the world of the Ancien Regime to the Battle of Waterloo. He sheds new light on the causes of the French Revolution and the impact of the revolution outside France. In taking a fresh look at the Napoleonic Empire, he considers the influences on Napoleon's leadership decisions and the machinations of his court. Written by one of the leading historians of Revolutionary France, this book will be essential reading for anyone interested in the French Revolution and Napoleonic Europe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of Napoleon An historian will one day arise who will do justice to Bonaparte's 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. Napoleon Bonaparte was born at Ajaccio, in Corsica, on the 15th of August, 1769. The name was originally written Buonaparte; but during the first campaign in Italy he dropped the u, merely to render the spelling conformable with the pronunciation, and to abridge his signature.
