Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Expedition to Russia, Undertaken by the Emperor Napoleon, in the Year 1812, Vol. 2 of 2 WE have seen how the Emperor. Alexander, sur prised ai Wilna' amidst his preparations for defence, retreated with his disunited'army, and Was unable to rally it till'it was at the distance of a hundred leagues from. That city, between Witepsk and Smolensk. That'prince, hurried along' in the precipitate retreat of Barclay, sought refuge at Drissa, in a camp injudiciously chosen and' ih trenched at great expense; a mere point in the space, on so extensive a frontier, and which served only to indicate to the enemy the object of his manoeuvres.
