« Souvenirs d’un Officier de La Grande Armée, publié par Maurice Barrés, son petit-fils. Paris Plon, 1923, in-16, 332 p... Maurice Barrés a bien mis en lumière dans sa préface ce qu’il y a de naïf et de savoureux dans ces souvenirs de son grand-père, vélite de la Garde. On Lira avec amusement le récit du sacre, celui d’Austerlitz et sa célèbre veillée, l’entrevue de Tilsit, la nomination au grade de sous-lieutenant, le Portugal en 1810, la campagne d’Allemagne... » p 11 - Professeur Jean Tulard, Bibliographie Critique Des Mémoires Sur Le Consulat Et L'Empire, Droz, Genève, 1971

The glory of the Imperial Guard resounds above all others in the annals of war. Created, built and nurtured as a bodyguard for Napoleon, it grew from a brigade of less than two thousand men into a virtual army, and became ‘a human fortress which no one but he could dominate and no enemy could penetrate’. And, on such battlefields as Austerlitz, Jena, Friedland, Wagram and Waterloo, it won the laurels of undying fame. Written by France’s foremost historian of the Napoleonic Wars, Commandant Henry Lachouque, and translated and adapted by Anne S. K. Brown, this sumptuous work is enhanced by over 180 illustrations, including 86 plates in full colour. With its vivid narrative and lavish illustrations, The Anatomy of Glory can lay justifiable claim to be one of the most magnificent books on military history ever published. The critical acclaim that greeted it upon its first publication provides ample testimony to its reputation: ‘This dramatic account of the birth, life and death of the fabulous Imperial Guard tells a stirring story in English for the first time.’-The Saturday Review of Literature. ‘No one but the most presumptuous who wishes to know about the Imperial Guard can afford to ignore this astonishing compilation. The illustrations alone...are reproduced with a clarity, a beauty, and technical perfection which no one can fail to admire.’ Journal of the RUSI. ‘This sumptuous book ... can yield rich rewards to any reader interested in the fabric of leadership. It is a delight to look at and a pleasure to read.’ -The New York Times. `... Not the well-worn history of conquest and defeat, but of the grognards themselves, marching through readable pages.’ -History Today. ‘Anne S. K. Brown has used her knowledge of French history and uniforms to render Lachouque freely and vigorously. Napoleon just happened to be fallible. But the superb apparatus of his fallibility is gorgeously recalled in this volume.’ The Scotsman.

De 1804 à 1835, Jean-Baptiste Barrès a tenu des carnets de route à partir desquels, une fois à la retraite, il a établi ce récit. Entré dans la Garde Impériale comme simple soldat, il terminera sa carrière 31 ans plus tard comme officier d'infanterie. Il aura servi sous Napoléon, Louis XVIII, Charles X et enfin LouisPhilippe. Il a eu l'occasion de rencontrer la plupart des célébrités de l'époque, au rang desquels nombre de maréchaux d'empire. Cet itinéraire se lit comme un roman. Nous partageons ses joies, ses peines, ses doutes et ses peurs, de la France à l'Allemagne en passant par la Pologne, la Prusse, l'Italie ou l'Espagne, à une époque où les bouleversements succédaient aux bouleversements à un rythme accéleré.

Napoleons Imperial Guard was arguably the most famous military formation to tread the battlefields of Europe. La Garde Imperial was created on 18 May 1804, and from its origins as a small personal escort, the Guard grew in size and importance throughout the Napoleonic era. Eventually, it became the tactical reserve of the Grande Arme, comprising almost a third of Napoleons field forces. The men of the Imperial Guard were the lite of the First Empire, its officers and men the military aristocracy of post-Revolutionary France.Used only sparingly, the Guard acquired a reputation of invincibility. Such had become its prestige, when the attacks of the Guard were repulsed at Waterloo, they signaled not only the defeat of the French army but also the end of an era.In this magnificent study, unparalleled in depth and scope, the renowned French historian Commandant Henry Lachouque has produced a lavish and sumptuous work. It combines vivid narrative with valuable and unique uniform illustrations, including seventy-four full color plates from the Anne S.K. Brown collection, to make The Anatomy of Glory one of the most important and most sought-after books on military history ever published.

Trois cahiers cartonnés, qui viennent de chez « Wiener, papetier, rue des Dominicains, 53, à Nancy », et leurs nombreux feuillets couverts d’une écriture paisible et claire, déjà bien pâlie par le temps : ce sont les recueils où mon grand-père Barrès, officier de la Grande Armée, ayant pris sa retraite à Charmes-sur-Moselle, transcrivit soigneusement les douzaines de petits carnets, souillés et déchirés, qu’il avait, durant vingt ans, promenés dans son havresac sur toutes les routes de l’Europe. « Itinéraire », voilà le titre exact qu’il donnait à ses étapes ; « Itinéraire et souvenirs d’un soldat devenu officier supérieur (Barrès, Jean-Baptiste, Auguste), né à Blesle (Haute-Loire), le 25 juillet 1784, ou tableau succinct des journées de marche et de séjour dans les villes et villages de garnison et de passage, dans les camps et les cantonnements, tant en France qu’en Allemagne, en Pologne, en Prusse, en Italie, en Espagne et en Portugal, depuis mon entrée au service le 27 juin 1804, jusqu’au 6 juin 1835, époque de mon admission à la solde de retraite. »
