Summary "Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte — Volume 09" by Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne is a historical account written during the late 19th century. The book serves as a detailed memoir that chronicles the personal observations and experiences of Bourrienne, who was the private secretary to Napoleon Bonaparte. It focuses on significant events in Napoleon's life and the political climate of Europe during his reign, particularly around the years 1805 to 1807. The opening of the memoir establishes the backdrop of political and military tensions in Europe, presenting the period surrounding the War of the Third Coalition. Bourrienne discusses the abolition of the revolutionary calendar and Napoleon’s war preparations in response to Austria's military activities. The narrative introduces key figures such as General Mack and Captain Bernard and highlights Napoleon's strategic movements and proclamations as he leads the French army into Germany. Throughout the opening chapters, Bourrienne provides insights into Napoleon's character, his diplomatic maneuvers, and the fervent atmosphere among his troops as they anticipated glory and victory in the impending conflict.
