Mémoires du général baron de Marbot (1/3) by Marbot
"Mémoires du général baron de Marbot (1/3)" by Marbot is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the life of Marbot, a military officer, as he navigates his personal journey during the tumultuous periods of the French Revolution and the Napoleonic Wars, along with the broader historical events of that era. At the start of the memoirs, the author introduces himself, recounting his childhood and early family
background in France. He describes the impact of the Revolution on his family, particularly how his father, initially a supporter of the monarchy, became an active participant in the revolutionary army. The opening chapters detail Marbot's transition from a sheltered upbringing in the countryside to his education at a military college amidst the chaos of revolutionary France. The vivid anecdotes provide insights into his family dynamics, the social changes taking place, and the development of his character as he prepares to embark on a military career.
