Description

Published by William Heinemann in 1899, this memoir provides a gripping first-hand account of Sergeant Bourgogne’s experiences during Napoleon’s catastrophic Russian campaign. Edited and translated from the French original by Paul Cottin and Maurice Hénault, the memoir is an invaluable historical document detailing the horrors of the retreat from Moscow.

Both copies are in good condition. The Memory of Broughty Ferry has clean pages and firm binding. There are minor marks to the covers, but overall it is in very good condition. What’s in a Name has some surface rubbing to a few pages at the back, where they were previously stuck together, affecting the acknowledgements and index sections only. Otherwise, the pages are clean, and the binding remains firm. The covers show minor edge wear and some marks on the back, but the overall condition is good.
