Book Description
Excerpt from The Grenadier a Story of the Empire Good reader, I'll not burden you with a long preface nobody likes a long preface. This is a story of the Empire. Follow with me, then, the French eagles, from the towers of Saragossa to the Kremlin's gilded dome at Moscow, in that stirring epoch which, as even the Prince de Metternich was forced to admit, can receive no more fitting appellation than The Age Napoleon. If when you have finished you feel that you have derived some pleasure and some profit from my labor, I shall say, like Gaspard in my story, That will be nice. I would like that - and so, good-bye.
