Book Description
Excerpt from The Crime of 1812 and Its Retribution: A New Rendering Into English of Labaume's "Relation Circonstanciee De La Campagne De Russie En 1812" The most striking chapters in the book are those which describe the ghastly catastrophe of the headlong rush of the wreck of the Grand Army across the territory which Napoleon had desolated. Like a wounded mastodon, crippled and bleeding at every pore, the once invincible army staggers blindly, madly, through the snow, intent only on escape, until at last, a mere shadow of its former self, starving, frost-bitten, despairing, it reaches safety in Prussia. More vivid word-painting may be found else where, but here are the words of a man who saw it all and who tells us what he saw.
