Beschreibung

Octavo. (2) pp. reviews, xxiv, 440 pages, index. This new edition was published by authority of his Grandson Count Louis De Segur and translated by H.A. Patchett-Martin. One of the sources for Joseph Conrad's political novels. When he wrote The Warrior's Soul he followed the affairs of honor where sex and death were intertwined. Much of the latter part of the book traces the events from Austerlitz to the various campaigns in the Germanic states. Bound in a modern rich blue leather, raised bands gilt, with compartments lettered and decorated with the Napoleonic symbols in gilt, top edge gilt, marbled endpapers, just a hint of toning to outer margins. A very nice copy. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 031084
