Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Queen of Napoleon's Court: The Life-Story of Desiree Bernadotte HE very kind reception given by the public and by most of the critics to my last book, A Leader of Society at Napoleon's Court, and the interest shown in any anecdotes or information about Napoleon and his family, lead me to hope that the story of another woman whose lot was cast in those wonderful days and in that fascinating country may not be without attraction for the general reader, to whom this book, like the last, is respectfully offered. My present heroine, Desiree Clary, did not possess the striking talents and character of Laura Permon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

CHAPTER XIV 1804 Lucien and his wife--The last night in Paris--Madame Lctizia and Joseph--Farewell of Bernadotte--A clainvvank The Empire --A fever of etiquette- A stormy evening--The Marshals of France--Conspiracy of Cadoudal and Pichcgru--Arrests and trial -- Consternation in Paris -- Execution of many of accused- Scene between Napoleon and Madame dc Montesson-- Those who were spared--Death of Madame de Montesson. THE departure of Lucien and his wife was deeply regretted by the Bernadottes. The former had returned from Romeonly to find Napoleon inexorable. He would do everything for Lucien if he would sacrifice his wife and declare his children illegitimate; nothing if he refused. Lucien should not live in Europe, or at any rate only in a distant part of it; certainly not in France. Lucien declined to give up his wife and children, or to accept invitations to family festivities where his wife was not invited; and, horrified at the murder of the Duc d'Enghien, he exclaimed to her-- " Alexandrine, he has tasted blood, let us get away." In a fragment left at his death, written in 1837, he says: " The details of this evening, the last I was to pass in France, are ever present to my mind. ... It was Easter-eve, 1804, the four travelling carriages were ready and loaded in the courtyard of the hotel, rue Saint-Dominique. . . . The servants went to and fro, the post-horses were ordered to be harnessed at daybreak. . . . My dear brother Joseph, with a sorrowful expression on his kind, handsome face, was walking with me up and down the long gallery of pictures for which I then had such a passion, and which were to begin to be packed for Rome after my departure. My mother and my wife were sitting on a little sofa by the fire, ... a number of...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sweeping novel about the extraordinary woman who captured Napoleon’s heart, created a dynasty, and changed the course of history—from the New York Times bestselling author of The Traitor's Wife, The Accidental Empress, and Sisi “I absolutely loved The Queen’s Fortune, the fascinating, little-known story of Desiree Clary—the woman Napoleon left for Josephine—who ultimately triumphed and became queen of Sweden.”—Martha Hall Kelly, New York Times bestselling author of Lilac Girls As the French revolution ravages the country, Desiree Clary is faced with the life-altering truth that the world she has known and loved is gone and it’s fallen on her to save her family from the guillotine. A chance encounter with Napoleon Bonaparte, the ambitious and charismatic young military prodigy, provides her answer. When her beloved sister Julie marries his brother Joseph, Desiree and Napoleon’s futures become irrevocably linked. Quickly entering into their own passionate, dizzying courtship that leads to a secret engagement, they vow to meet in the capital once his career has been secured. But her newly laid plans with Napoleon turn to sudden heartbreak, thanks to the rising star of Parisian society, Josephine de Beauharnais. Once again, Desiree’s life is turned on its head. Swept to the glittering halls of the French capital, Desiree is plunged into the inner circle of the new ruling class, becoming further entangled with Napoleon, his family, and the new Empress. But her fortunes shift once again when she meets Napoleon's confidant and star general, the indomitable Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte. As the two men in Desiree’s life become political rivals and military foes, the question that arises is: must she choose between the love of her new husband and the love of her nation and its Emperor? From the lavish estates of the French Riviera to the raucous streets of Paris and Stockholm, Desiree finds herself at the epicenter of the rise and fall of an empire, navigating a constellation of political giants and dangerous, shifting alliances. Emerging from an impressionable girl into a fierce young woman, she discovers that to survive in this world she must learn to rely upon her instincts and her heart. Allison Pataki’s meticulously researched and brilliantly imagined novel sweeps readers into the unbelievable life of a woman almost lost to history—a woman who, despite the swells of a stunning life and a tumultuous time, not only adapts and survives but, ultimately, reigns at the helm of a dynasty that outlasts an empire.
Book Synopsis Women Against Napoleon by : Gertrud M. Roesch
Download or read book Women Against Napoleon written by Gertrud M. Roesch and published by Campus Verlag. This book was released on 2007 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although Prussia's beloved Queen Luise and the Swiss-born aristocrat and writer Germaine de Staël were Napoleon Bonaparte's best-known female opponents, women's discontent with Napoleon and the Napoleonic wars was more widespread--and vocal--than once assumed. Women against Napoleon expands our awareness of the range of women's responses to the despot by presenting an international spectrum of female opposition, including contemporary letters, diaries, and published writings, as well as historical fiction of the twentieth century. By setting these materials together, this volume forges new links between literary, historical, and gender scholarship.
