"Mémoires du maréchal Marmont, duc de Raguse" by Marmont is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book recounts the military experiences of the author during a significant period in French history, particularly focusing on the Egyptian campaign led by Napoleon Bonaparte from 1799 to 1800. It provides insight into the political and military maneuvers, the challenges faced, and the broader context of the Napoleonic Wars. The opening of this memoir describes the dire circumstances faced by Marmont and his troops while stationed in Alexandria, Egypt. He expresses his frustration at being sidelined during an important campaign and outlines his efforts to secure resources amidst threats of famine and disease. Marmont recounts his interactions with fellow officers, including General Menou, and the desperate measures taken to sustain the garrison against external threats, including a tentative insurrection and the looming presence of the British fleet. This passage sets the tone for the memoir, illustrating the struggles and complexities of military leadership during a tumultuous period. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 63.9 (8th & 9th grade). Neither easy nor difficult to read.
