This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1858 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER X. THE WAR OF 1812. Napoleon warned. --Causes of the war.--Count Narbonne in Vilna.--Napoleon's blunders.--Polish deputies.--' Russian generals.--Alaxander's letter to Count Soltykoff. -- State of the Russian army. -- Bagration and Barclay de Tolly.--" Enfans de Paris."--Smolensk.-- Borodino.--Moscow.--Tauroutino.-- Maloiaroslawitz. -- Viazma. -- Krasnoi. -- Smolensk. -- Berezina. -- Wilna. Lord John Russell is very badly informed indeed, when he says that Napoleon's favourite generals encouraged the gigantic scheme of conquest, flattered the vanity of the rash and sanguinary despot;* none of them did this. Duroc, Daru, Caulaincourt, Narbonne, strongly remonstrated against his project of invading Russia. Who does not know that, on Cardinal Fesch conjuring him not to quarrel with the sky and the earth at the same time--meaning by the sky the papal power, -- Napoleon took him to the window and pointed to the sky, saying, -- "Do you see that star?," "No, Sire." "Look well, there it is." "I do not see it." "Well then, I do see it." "What is to defend France?" said the Duke of Vicenca. "My fame!" Neither the occupation of Oldenburg, for which some compensation might have been found, nor that of Pomeranja, was the cause of the war; nor more the changes of the Russian tariff, for Napoleon himself allowed some digressions to the continental blockade; but his scheme of invading India, a project he had settled with Paul I. * " Modern Europe," tomeiv, page DEGREES473. " Colonel Tchernysheff, an aide-de-camp of the Emperor of Russia, had, through bribery, procured from the French war office the plans of the intended campaign. Napoleon sent to pursue him, but too late to attain him, and he was obliged to make out new plans; the real state of the...

As Alan Palmer himself writes in his preface, 'Alexander 1, ruler of Russia for the first quarter of the nineteenth century, is remembered today mainly on three counts: as the Tsar who refused to make peace with the French when Moscow fell in 1812; as the idealist who sought to bind Europe's sovereigns in a Holy Alliance in 1815; and as the Emperor who died - or gave the impression of having died - at the remote southern seaport of Taganrog in the winter of 1825. Recent interest has concentrated , perhaps excessively, on the third of these dramatic episodes akthough it is natural that the epic years of the struggle with Napoleon should continue to excite the historical imagination.' He has been dubbed 'The Enigmatic Tsar'. There are many contrasting opinions of him. Thomas Jefferson declared 'A more virtuous man, I believe, does no exist, nor one who is more enthusiastically devoted to better the condition of mankind. Castlereagh thought well of him, too, but both Metternich and Napoleon considered him inconsistent and untrustworthy. And Pushkin famously described him as 'a Sphinx who carried his riddle with him to the tomb.' an assessment even more piquant if it is true, as some maintain, his tomb in empty. With his customary blend of meticulous scholarship and agreeable writing, Alan Palmer provides the most balanced and engaging portrait imaginable. 'A pleasure to read and unlikely to be replaced for many years' Philip Ziegler, The Times 'Excellent . . . a major biographical achievement, a notable contribution to our understanding of this still enigmatic monarch' Robert Blake, Spectator

Alexander I of Russia dreamt his whole life of realizing in his Empire the great ideas of the French Revolution of Human Rights and Freedom. As autocrat Alexander intended to grant his subjects a constitution and a representative government. But being, involved his whole reign, intermittently in love-hate relations with Napoleon, then in European politics and diplomacy, he did not dare to make serious effort in his intentions. He was and remains the most mysterious ruler history has ever known. The question, whether he died in Taganrog in 1825, or somebody else was placed into his coffin, while he went on pilgrimage to expiate his burdened soul for the unwilling participation in the death of his father, lived as starets Fedor Kuzmich and died in 1864 at the age of 87, is still open. The book investigates these and many other problems of his mysterious and glorious reign. Based on original documents, the book is written in the first person.

Eleven biographical sketches written by Russian historians are notable as first efforts of the post-1985 period to reassess Imperial Russia's rulers. The work focuses on the human qualities of the emperors and empresses, and emphasizes nonideological scholarly investigation thus rehabilitating Russia's tsars as complex leaders instead of wooden, one dimensional "capitalists." The historical figures portrayed include: Peter I, Anna Ivanovna, Elizabeth I, Peter III, Catherine II, Paul I, Alexander I, Nicholas I, Alexander II, Alexander III, and Nicholas II.
