Il barone Fleury de Chaboulon repubblicano volontario sedicenne nella Guardia Nazionale e decorato della Campagna di Francia fu uomo politico di provata fede bonapartista: nel 1815 raggiunse Napoleone all’Elba e ne divenne Segretario Particolare; costretto all’esilio dopo Waterloo si rifugiò a Londra dove pubblicò queste memorie dapprima per John Murray 1819 e subito dopo in questa edizione stampata per Longman Hurst da A. Strahan. Dettagliatissime e ricche di notizie tanto politiche quanto private sull’imperatore e i suoi contemporanei queste memorie furono lette a Sant’Elena da Napoleone che trovandole troppo rivelatrici censurò e annotò diffusamente la propria copia. «Ces mémoires sont une source importante pour l’histoire du retour de l’Ile d’Elbe et des Cent-Jours et décrivent abondamment les intrigues autour de l’Empereur notanment celles de Fouché» Bertier de Sauvigny - Fierro Bibliographie critique des mémoires sur la Restauration écrits ou traduits en français 414.

Il tient le drapeau tricolore dans une main et dans l'autre une épée et un rameau d'olivier. Il est observé par différents membres de la famille royale munis de télescopes chacun prononçant une phrase aussi mémorable que "De l'eau de l'eau partout !" ou "Cet homme fera son chemin". Seul Berry suggère "Faisons-lui une petite guerre". En excellent état à l'exception d'un léger assombrissement de la bordure des pages. Signature inintelligible à l'encre au verso de la gravure. 8 pages non coupées. Un excellent exemple. 325 x 250 mm Chez tous les Librairies de la ville et des départements unknown
