Memoirs Of The Empress Josephine

1879. Two volumes in one. An exceptional and extremely interesting account of one of the Empress Josephine's principal ladies-in-waiting, providing a remarkable view of life in Napoleon's Counsular and Imperial courts, as well as a wealth of information concerning the members of the Imperial family and other important personalities, particularly Talleyrand. Unlike many female memoirs of the Napoleonic era that were largely written by ghost writers, Madame de Remusat's are reputed to be written by herself. A well-written account sure to hold the interest of the reader.
