M. Adolphe Thiers - Histoire du Consulat et de l'Empire, Faisant suite à l'histoire de la révolution Française - 1845-1855

A vast twenty-volume set of this edition, one of the great historiographical undertakings devoted to Napoleonic France, presented as the direct continuation of the History of the French Revolution that Thiers had published previously -

The set covers a decisive period of European history, from the establishment of the Consulate following the coup of 18 Brumaire to the final downfall of Napoleon I in 1815, tracing at great length the political, military, diplomatic, administrative, and social transformations that accompany the rise and eventual decline of Napoleonic power -

Thiers first focuses on the circumstances that allow Bonaparte to establish himself after the years of instability of the Directory, showing how the Consulate sought to restore order, reorganize the State, and put an end to the divisions inherited from the Revolution -
