Description
This volume contains the Mémoires complets et authentiques by Laure Junot, Duchess of Abrantès, an emblematic figure in the circle of Napoléon Ier. Written in the 19th century, these memoirs provide a firsthand account of life in high imperial society, political intrigues, and the customs of the era, from the Revolution to the Restoration. Published during the July Monarchy, the work stands out for its lively style and anecdotes about major historical figures, including Empress Joséphine and Talleyrand. The copy offered is from an early edition, its physical condition reflecting its age, with characteristic signs of wear such as foxing, slightly worn headcaps, and a used binding, though without compromising the legibility of the text.
