Mémoires du Duc de Raguse de 1792 à 1832
offer a firsthand account of one of the most tumultuous periods in French history. Written by Auguste Frédéric Louis Viesse de Marmont, the Duke of Ragusa, these memoirs provide invaluable insights into the Napoleonic era and the subsequent Restoration. Marmont, a prominent military figure and close associate of Napoleon Bonaparte, recounts his experiences on the battlefield, in the corridors of power, and amidst the shifting political landscape of post-revolutionary France.
These memoirs detail Marmont's participation in key military campaigns, shedding light on strategic decisions and the human cost of war. Beyond military matters, the Duke's recollections paint a vivid picture of French society, politics, and culture during a time of profound transformation. This edition allows readers to engage directly with the perspective of a key historical actor, making it an essential resource for anyone interested in French history, the Napoleonic Wars, and the art of memoir writing.
