Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Napoleonic Studies The traveller whose way takes him through a vast forest is compelled by the needs of the case to press on to the outskirts, lest, perchance, night should overtake him amidst those tangled solitudes. He may here and there pause to glance down an attractive glade, but prudence forbids him to stray far from the main path. Very similar is the self-denying ordinance enjoined by common sense on those who essay to write the life of Napoleon. The task is so immense that wandering after side issues involves grave risk of failure to reach the goal. The historian may cast longing glances at many a subsidiary question, but his only chance of emerging from the mazes that beset him, from the time of the Paolist strifes in Corsica to the last intrigues at St. Helena, is to hold fast to the main clue. While writing my "Life of Napoleon I.," I felt the pressure of this prudential constraint. Only at some points was I tempted to disobey its behests, namely, when some new materials came to hand that shed a new light on the story as a whole. In this respect fortune favoured me at many points. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fall of Napoleon Duced so far as they are necessary for clearness. A vast amount of Napoleonic literature has been published during the last ten or fifteen years, and with the greater part of that literature the present writer claims to be acquainted. The result of this has been not only to bring to light many facts which were previously unknown, but to modify in many respects the judgments passed upon N apoleon's actions by competent historians. For instance, no action of Napoleon has been more universally con demmed than his refusal to accept terms of peace during the armistice of 1813, but the analysis of the policy of Metternich made by M. Albert Sorel in his last published volume has shown that it would have been impossible for Napoleon to have acted otherwise. It is believed that the result of these researches now finds place for the first time in an English book, and the View of Napoleon's character and conduct, which is rather indicated in these pages than positively stated, is different to that generally held by English historians. For reasons which have been thought sufficient, the pages of this book have not been burdened. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Napoleonic Statesmanship: Germany For the history of the grand-duchy of Berg the student must go to the Archives Nationales in Paris and to the Staatsarchiv at Dusseldorf. The material at the Archives Nationales is extremely voluminous, but beautifully arranged and catalogued. I have read not all, but nearly all, that is to be found there. At Dusseldorf the mass of papers is even greater, and the cataloguing very rough. Much of the material, pro bably most of it, is a duplicate of documents trans mitted to Paris; but nevertheless the archives repay a visit, and I regret that my stay was necessarily so short. There are a few papers concerning the grand duchy at the Ministere des Affaires Etrangeres, but they are of slight importance.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dream of Bonaparte: A Napoleonic Study The question of "Pope and Emperor" has always been a favorite one with those who have professed to write the philosophical commentary upon the events of Christian history. The reason for this attraction is not hard to find. In all the conflicts which the Popes have had to sustain against the aggressions of civil rulers, the principles at stake are always clearly defined and of deep moment. In each conflict, the opening, progress and conclusion of the storm stand out, as it were, in great serial illustrations that offer to the philosophical historian material which he cannot find elsewhere in human records.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Napoleon's Notes on English History Made on the Eve of the French, Revolution: Illustrated From Con-Temporary Historians and Refreshed From the Findings of Later Research While the last proofs of this book were passing through the press the Author was seized by a sudden attack of an old complaint, and passed away in the very height of his manhood and of his faculties. It devolves on me - his friend and publisher - to say with what eagerness he used his life, and so rapidly burnt it up that he could not have hoped to have lived to an old age. The very strenuousness and eagerness of his living was beyond what his physical nature could endure. In his forty years of life he accomplished an immense amount of work; but of all the tasks he undertook - and they were almost numberless - the one he set himself con amore was the determination to unveil and clear from the rubbish and mud-throwing of a hundred years the character of his hero Napoleon - that his compatriots might see him as he was, and to make them understand the "man" without prejudice and with knowledge. Napoleon had become the romance of his life, nay, one may almost say its passion; and he was always eagerly on the watch for evidence to clear away calumny which he believed surrounded and hid a hero of a noble ambition. He was a student of the keenest order, revelling in detail, leaving nothing undone that was possible to make a fact more sure, never counting any task too hard if it made for the goal of completeness.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Napoleon, Vol. 1 of 2 The character and actions of Napoleon have never found in this country, as in France - a circumstance by no means extraordinary what is understood by a mere partisan. Nearly every one of his English historians and biographers have been direct and manfully avowed enemies and denouncers. The constant fear of being daz zled by the false glory (a salutary fear with reference to the glory of all deeds of war) of this particular here, has led to an Opposite extreme, and injured the sight as to various qualities, actions, and facts, which at least claimed always a just, as they often deserved a generous, estimation. The chief exception to the general feeling of unqualified hostility is to be found in Hazlitt, Whose earnest, powerful, though somewhat rambling work, written in the full vein of admiration, contains, nevertheless, some of the heaviest animad versions. These passages have, for the most part, been quoted, as an act of justice towards all parties. Emanating from such an ad mirer, they must indeed have been deserved; in other instances, however, I have almost always abstained from using strong language of any kind, my plan being rather to let events take their course, and narrate them as they occurred, without identifying myself, or any one else, in the scene, more than absolutely necessary or inevitable to our common conditions of humanity.
