Memoirs of Napoleon In Three Volumes The personal reminiscences of Baron de Mdheval, for thirteen years private secretary to Napoleon Bonaparte, bring out, as no history can, many enlightening and interesting side lights on the character of that greatest of 1 aders. De Meneval’s descriptions have the piquancy and interest possible only because he was an actual eye witness of the scenes and incidents of which he writes. Their reliability and historical interest can be judged by the fact that the very conservative French Academy publicly recommends them.
