As a member of the Imperial palace and closest aides and servants of Napoleon in both war and peace, Bausset was an eye-witness to the greatest events of the French court. The memoirs begin with the coronation of Napoleon as Emperor of the French; as Napoleon marches across Europe, his palace campaigns with him from the Pratzen Heights at Austerlitz to the snows of Russia in 1812. Bausset recounts all that he sees and hears of Napoleon and his marshals, generals and wives. A fine memoir
