Général Lejeune - De Valmy à Wagram - 1896

General Lejeune
From Valmy to Wagram
1896
Second edition published after the very rare edition of Toulouse in 1851.
Format in-12
"The memoirs of Baron Lejeune trace the military life of the young volunteer of 1792 who became a general officer after the Battle of the Moskva.
In the account of this dangerous and heroic life, two scenes stand out most for the reader:
The Siege of Zaragoza and the retreat from Russia.
"Popular memoirs, close in tone to those of Marbot or Thiébault, thus inviting some reservations about the authenticity of the reported facts." Jean Tulard
