This book was released on 2013-02-25 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dignity of Marshal of France was to be the apogee of success for any general in Napoleonic France, since the Emperor only created 26 during his years on the throne. Fame, riches and high station in the Imperial Court were the bountiful reward for hard service on the battlefield. Napoleon handed out these dignities, along with kingdoms, principalities, admiralties, dukedoms for more than purposes of recognition; they were also to bind the recipient to his empire even more tightly. Marshal Macdonald was not a man to be flattered or bought; he was of Scottish descent and held his own views. His memoirs bear this imprint of forthright opinion, which had led him into trouble with the Emperor, but such was his value on the battlefield he was courted again by Napoleon. Marshal Macdonald fought all across Europe, particularly at the battle of Jemappes in the Revolutionary armies on the Rhine. He fought well under Napoleon’s eagles in Spain, Russia, Germany and France itself. Outstanding at the battle of Wagram, his attack on the Austrian centre, for which he became the only man to be made marshal on the field of battle by Napoleon, clinched the day. Never wholly Napoleon’s man, he was a prime mover in forcing his master’s abdication in 1814 and refused to rejoin him in 1815. This second volume Marshal Macdonald recounts his experiences up to the fall of Napoleon in 1815.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The recollections of one of Napoleons most dependable commanders Among all Napoleon's marshals Macdonald is one of the most intriguing, for he bears a name more likely to found among those highland regiments of Wellington's infantry who were among his master's most formidable enemies. Jacques Macdonald was born in Sedan in the Ardennes region of France, the son of a Jacobite Scottish exile, and was a close relative of Flora MacDonald who played such a memorable role in the flight of Prince Charles Stewart to the continent after the failure of the rebellion of 1745. Born in 1765, Jacques Macdonald was of an age to ensure he would take part in the momentous events that swept through France in the late 18th century bringing revolution, regicide, the Republic, Consulate and Empire under Napoleon Bonaparte. Perhaps predictably Macdonald experienced campaigns and battles throughout the Napoleonic age in most of the European theatres of the conflict and he graphically describes those events and his part in them in this book. He was a faithful and dependable commander who lacked true military genius but whose qualities made him trustworthy, and it was for these qualities that Napoleon was consistently entrusted him with independent commands. Whilst Macdonald's career cannot fail to be of interest to all students of the Napoleonic Wars what makes this book special is its readability and Macdonald's ability to describe vividly the events he witnessed in an entertaining and informative manner. The value of his book as an historical document is further enhanced by the insights he provides into his own character-that of an obviously decent, honourable and likeable individual. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recollections of Marshal Macdonald: Duke of Tarentum In the month of May, 1825, the sexagenarian Marshal Macdonald, left a widower for the third time, was plunged in the deepest grief. By his previous marriage he had only daughters; the last marriage, solemnized scarcely four years before, and which had terminated so sadly, left him a son, heir to his name. It was for this child still in the cradle that, far from Paris, far from the conventional consolations and condolences of the Court, the Marshal undertook - not to distract, but to occupy the isolation caused by his sorrow - to note down the various stages of his long and glorious career. He did not pretend to write memoirs; they are merely recollections destined for the child who was alone to see them in the future.
