Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Political turmoil in France at the turn of the 19th century created abrupt transitions between the republic and imperial rule. This book presents the memoirs of Count Lavallette, a military officer who served under Napoleon Bonaparte in various campaigns, including the Egyptian campaign, and as director-general of the French postal service. Lavallette was arrested in 1815 and faced a court-martial for his role in the "Hundred Days," when Napoleon briefly regained power. His trial generated significant debate and became a significant turning point in the era. Lavallette provides thorough descriptions of the battles he fought in and captivating accounts of the infamous conspiracy and trial that followed. The author deftly explores the complex and rapidly-changing political landscape of the time, offering a unique perspective on the ascent and fall of Napoleon and the wider political machinations of the era. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

Hinges Tight, No Marks Or Bookplates, Small Shelf Labels At Bottom Of Spine Of Each Volume. Per Wikipedia, Antoine Marie Chamans, Comte De Lavalette (1769 - 1830) Was A French Politician And General. Born In Paris The Same Year As Napoleon Bonaparte, He Spent The Revolution In The French Revolutionary Army, Where He Rose Through The Ranks To Become An Aide-De-Camp To General Louis Baraguey D'hilliers. In 1796, After The Battle Of The Bridge Of Arcole, Baraguey D'hilliers Introduced His Aide-De-Camp To Napoleon, Who Was Impressed Enough To Take Him Onto His Personal Staff And To Entrust Him With Diplomatic Missions. On 22 April 1798, Lavalette Was Married To Émilie De Beauharnais (1781-1855), Niece Of Napoléon's Wife Joséphine. Lavalette Returned To France With Napoleon, Taking Part In The Latter's 18 Brumaire Coup Against The French Directory (1799). He Occupied A Number Of Offices In The French Consulate And First Empire, Most Notably Eleven Years As Minister Of Posts, During Which He Oversaw The Covert Monitoring Of The Mail Of Suspected Royalists. On 27 November 1808, He Was Created A Count Of The Empire. Having Rejected The Opportunity To Go Into Exile With Napoleon, Because He Had A Pregnant Wife And A 13-Year-Old Daughter, He Was Arrested After The Beginning Of The Bourbon Restoration. His Wife Had Lost Her Pregnancy In October, And, On 21 November 1815, Lavalette Was Sentenced To Execution By The Ultras. One Night Before His Scheduled Execution, He Was Visited By His Wife And Daughter Josephine (Later The Baronne De Forget, Who Became The Long-Time Mistress Of Eugène Delacroix) And Managed To Change Clothes And Places With His Wife, A Ruse That Was Not Discovered Until The Next Morning. Having Escaped Prison, Lavalette Made His Way To Great Britain With The Assistance Of A Small Group Of British Soldiers, Amongst Whom Were Robert Wilson And John Hely-Hutchinson. He Then Made His Way To The United Kingdom Of The Netherlands, And Finally To Bavaria, Where He Had The Support Of Eugène De Beauharnais Of His Wife's Family And His Father-In-Law Maximilian I Joseph Of Bavaria. Madame Lavalette Remained In Prison Until 23 January 1816.
