The Memoirs of Napoleon, Volume 13, 1815 is a historical book written by Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne. It is a detailed account of the events that occurred during the year 1815, which was a crucial period in the life of Napoleon Bonaparte. The book covers the period from Napoleon's return from exile on Elba to his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo and subsequent exile to Saint Helena. The author, Bourrienne, was a close friend and personal secretary of Napoleon, and his memoirs are considered to be one of the most reliable and insightful accounts of Napoleon's life. In this volume, Bourrienne provides a first-hand account of the political and military events that shaped Europe during this period. The book covers Napoleon's attempts to regain power in France, his military campaigns against the allied forces, and his eventual defeat at the hands of the British and Prussian armies. It also delves into the political and social factors that led to Napoleon's downfall, including the opposition of the European powers and the rise of nationalism in France. Overall, The Memoirs of Napoleon, Volume 13, 1815 is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the life and times of one of history's most famous figures. It provides a unique perspective on the events of this critical period in European history, and sheds light on the character and motivations of Napoleon Bonaparte.Even now I am filled with astonishment when I think of the Council that was held at the Tuileries on the evening of the 13th of March in M. de Blacas' apartments. The ignorance of the members of that Council respecting our situation, and their confidence in the useless measures they had adopted against Napoleon, exceed all conception.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
