The first edition published anonymously appeared in 1805 8vo 80 pp. This new edition includes a preface by the purported translator and an errata: this leaf sig. vii-viii has been placed at the end of the volume. A virulent pamphlet against Napoleon I who is here concealed under the name of Nabis the former tyrant of Sparta. ""Une nation s'est élevée pour asservir l'univers ; elle a d'abord exercé ses forces sur tout ce qui l'environnait ; elle a vaincu ses voisins ; elle a donné à la servitude qu'elle leur impose le nom de paix et depuis ce moment elle n'en connaît aucune autre"" p. 11. A versatile and intriguing figure the Comte dAntraigues 17531812 was from 1790 to 1812 one of the principal intelligence agents of the European coalition against France and specialized in counter-propaganda.He unwittingly played a key role in the denunciation of Pichegru which enabled the republican majority of the Directory to carry out the coup détat of 18 Fructidor Year V 4 September 1797.Under the Consulate and the Empire Antraigues in the service of Russia established intelligence networks from Austria Dresden and England.""Sa femme et lui moururent assassinés dans leur maison de Barnes-Terrace près de Londres le 22 juillet 1812. L'assassin un Piémontais déserteur de l'armée française se suicida. On se perd en conjecture sur celui ou ceux qui avaient armé son bras : Louis XVIII furieux de la révélation du complot de Pichegru La Russie L'Autriche Ou encore Napoléon qui continuait à considérer d'Antraigues comme l'un de ses pires ennemis L'assassinat du comte et de la comtesse d'Antraigues reste un mystère qu'il sera difficile d'éclaircir"".

1812AQ20594Montpellier: l'Imprimerie de Mme. Picot 1812. Single leaf broadside. With the Imperial eagle vignette to head. Early vertical and horizontal folds edges uncut. A trifle browned single small hole touching text without loss of sense. An original example published in Montpelier of the twentieth bulletin of the Grand Armée in Russia. These bulletins were issued by Napoleon in order to communicate progress of his most significant military campaign to date to the French public. Immensely significant propaganda tools these bulletins explained the prevailing conditions; in this case reporting on the French capture of Moscow in the preceding days. Although not the political capital of Russia the city's fall represented a severe blow to defending army. As the bulletin notes 'Moscou est l'entreport de l'Asie et de l'Europe; ses magasins etaient immenses; toutes les maisons etaient approvisionnees de tout pour huit mois'. Somewhat ominously given the benefit of hindsight the bulletin closes somewhat bombastically with a reference to the temperature and the availability of coats and furs: 'La temperature est encore celle de l'automne: le soldat a trouve et trouve beaucoup de pelisses et des fourrures pour l'hiver. Moscou en est le magasin'. Within three months in the now infamous XXIXe. Bulletin Napoleon was to report the full extent of the calamitous failure of the Russian campaign - blaming his military failure almost entirely upon the weather. .

1844053992Cairo Kahire-Bulaq: Bulaq Printing House. Hegira: 1260 1844. 1st Edition . Hardcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. n original cloth bdg. Large roy. 8vo. 25 x 17 cm. In Ottoman script. 90 p. Hegira: 1260 = Gregorian: 144. First only and extremely rare Ottoman Turkish translation and 'Bulaq Edition' of this account of Napoleon described as 'Extrait du Memorial de Sainte-Helene. The Bulaq or El-Amiriya Press is the first official and governmental printing press to be established in Egypt and function according to industrial printing basis causing not just a qualitative but also a quantitative and knowledgeable leap in science throughout the Arab region. The Bulaq Press was part of Mohamed Aly's inclusive development plans for the modernization of Egypt. The Khedive first initiated his plans by establishing a strong Egyptian army; one that is capable of strengthening his grip on the country. It thus became essential that this army be provided with the necessary instructive and educational books and material by which to learn military plans and techniques as well as the different types of artillery and laws that define a soldier's duties and rights. A pressing need eventually developed for establishing a governmental press; one that should provide such material. By 1815 CE. Mohamed Aly initiated the process of bringing the art of printing to Egypt by sending the first official delegation headed by Nicole El Masabki to Milan in Italy to learn the principles of printing. The same delegation was later able to return and establish the first official press in Egypt. This rare and unusual book published and printed in Bulaq Press shortly after the foundation of the printing house. After his final defeat at Waterloo and his subsequent second exile Napoleon Bonaparte spent 10 weeks on board the HMS Northumberland as it sailed him to the far-flung reaches of the South Atlantic. His destination was St. Helena a small and windswept island under British control. Almost 2000 kilometers west of Africa St. Helena measured only 122 square kilometers 47 square miles - half the size of his former home-in-exile Elba. His intended home Longwood was not finished by the time he arrived and so Bonaparte stayed with a British family - the Balcombes- at their residence The Briars. He made a great friend of the family's younger daughter Betsy and the pair got on famously. Napoleon was given very few privileges. Once he met a slave and desired to free him the English government denied his request on the grounds that he was trying to align with the slaves and start an insurrection. Napoleon spent most of his days dictating his memoirs to his generals reading plays novels and the latest books from Europe that his captors would allow him. He spent six years there though there are really only anecdotes to describe his life at the time which for the most part carry expressions of loneliness and boredom. Extremely rare.

185723362American & British 1857. Very good condition. An archive of Napoleonic war accounts in mostly American newspapers reporting important world events from 1798 through to 1857. These vivid contemporary accounts span the entire period of the Napoleonic era. <br /> <br /> Starting with the 1798 article in a Connecticut newspaper there is a description of Napoleon's campaign the Egyptian campaign and the mystery which surrounded its goal and destination: "Nothing certain is yet known relative to the destination of Buonaparte's sic armament . Never was a political secret more inviolably kept nor was the curiosity of Europe ever more excited than on this occasion. Among the various destinations assigned by rumor to the expedition Candia sic Cyprus Constantinople and Alexandria are mentioned . See item 1 p3 col. 1.<br /> <br /> The archive ends with Napoleon's defeat at the Battle of Waterloo and the new balance of power which resulted in Europe. In the December 16 1818 issue of 'The Morning Chronicle' a letter to the editors remarks on the vast changes in Europe: <br /> "After a state of warfare which has lasted above twenty years and which has entirely changed the face of Europe the reverses which Bonaparte has experienced within the last twelvemonth have at least placed him more on a level with his antagonists in point of power; the terror which attended the prospect of his reducing all Europe to one power is in a great measure dissipated; his motions are neither so rapid nor his advantages so decided as they formerly were. . No state of things can be more desirable nor more advantageous to this country England than that a balance were established in Europe by which a general peace would be maintained for the longest possible period." See item 26 p3 col. 4.<br /> <br /> Each article roughly over 10 column inches in length. The articles range from very good to rough condition and are mostly in good order.
