The Hero of Brittany: Armand De Chateaubriand, Correspondant des Princes between England and France, 1768-1809 is a book written by Eugene Herpin and published in 1914. The book is a biography of Armand de Chateaubriand, a French nobleman who served as a diplomat and journalist during the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Chateaubriand was born into a noble family in Brittany, France, in 1768. He was educated in France and England and became fluent in both languages. He began his career as a diplomat in 1789, serving as a secretary to the French ambassador in London. He later became a correspondent for several French newspapers, reporting on political events in England and France.During the French Revolution, Chateaubriand was forced to flee France and spent several years in England. He continued to work as a journalist and wrote several books, including a memoir of his experiences during the Revolution. In 1800, Chateaubriand returned to France and was appointed as a diplomat to the court of King George III in London. He served in this position for several years, working to improve relations between France and England. The book provides a detailed account of Chateaubriand's life and career, including his personal and professional relationships with some of the most prominent figures of his time, such as Napoleon Bonaparte and the Duke of Wellington. It also explores the political and social context of the era, including the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars.Overall, The Hero of Brittany is a comprehensive biography of a fascinating historical figure, offering insights into the politics and culture of 18th and 19th century Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
