Summary | "Mémoires du maréchal Berthier ... Campagne d'Égypte, première partie" by Berthier et al. is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The work explores the French expedition in Egypt during the late 18th century, primarily detailing the military maneuvers and experiences of Louis-Alexandre Berthier, who served as a major-general in the campaign. The text likely offers insights into significant battles, strategic decisions, and the political landscape of the time. The opening of the memoir provides context for Berthier's military background and his role in the Egyptian campaign. It begins with descriptions of the preparation and logistics involved in the expedition, including the difficulties faced during the initial naval landing at Alexandria. Berthier describes the challenges encountered as they disembarked and advanced toward the city, depicting the complexities of engaging with local forces and the strategic decisions made by General Bonaparte, who leads the French troops. This early portion sets the stage for the unfolding events of the campaign, establishing a blend of military history and personal narrative that shapes Berthier's experiences in this pivotal moment of French military history.
