Joachim Murat, son of an innkeeper, had won his spurs as Napoleon’s finest cavalry general and then won his throne when, in 1808, Napoleon appointed him king of Naples. He loyally ran this strategic Italian kingdom with his wife, Napoleon’s sister Caroline, until, in 1814, with Napoleon beaten and in retreat towards ruin and exile, the royal couple chose to betray their imperial relation and dramatically switched sides. This notorious betrayal won them temporary respite, but just a year later Murat engineered his own dramatic fall. A series of blunders took the cavalier king from thinking he had secured his dynasty to fleeing his kingdom. His native France did not welcome him, initially because Napoleon had not forgiven him, then, after Napoleon’s fall following Waterloo, because the restored Bourbons were offering a reward for Murat’s head. Fleeing again, fate brought him to Corsica where, welcomed at last, Murat turned to plotting the reversal in his fortunes he so felt he deserved. Murat soon resolved to bet everything on a hare-brained plan to return to Naples as a conquering hero and king. His aim was to take a small band of followers, land near his capital, organise regime change and reclaim his throne. In September 1815, he set off and what happened next forms the core of this part-tragic, part-ridiculous story and a lesson in how not to stage a coup. Just five days after landing in Calabria, King Joachim was hauled before a firing squad and executed. There is a fine line in history between a fool and a hero. Had Murat succeeded then he would be lauded as daringly heroic but, alas, he failed, and his final adventure has been consigned to oblivion. This is unfortunate as the fall of Joachim Murat is the final act of the Napoleonic Wars in Europe as well as being a dramatic story in its own right. Based on research in the archives of Paris and Naples, Jonathan North’s book aims to throw light on the fate of the mightily fallen Murat and restore some history to a tale that, until now, lay smothered under two centuries of fable and neglect.

And again the reviewer says, we will notice but one other fact, in the way of observation on the nobleness of charac ter attributed by our author to Joachim. In the war with Austria which preceded the peace of Presburg, the French did not enter Vienna until the 13th November, when it was evacuated by the native troops. Murat commanding the advance, marched onwards to take possession of the city while there was a corps of Austrians, under Prince Aurs burg stationed at the bridge of the Danube, for the purpose of destroying it in case of necessity. Preparations had been made, and that necessity had arrived. What was the expedient by which iviurat avoided'this consequence, that would have considerably retarded the march of his army into Mora via, whither the emperor with his court had for safety withdrawn '9 He rode in full Speed to the Prince, and assured him, on his word of honour, that an armistice had been concluded and by this infamous falsehood he accomplished his purpose.
