The brave officer, a participant in many of the great emperor’s campaigns, was also a talented writer. “Memoirs of General Baron de Marbot” became a “bestseller” immediately after its publication at the end of the 19th century. His book was read by several generations of readers, and it was translated into almost all European languages. For the first time, we are publishing “Memoirs of General Baron de Marbot” in Russian in full. More than a hundred years ago, being strongly impressed by “Memoirs,” the famous English writer Arthur Conan Doyle created a series of stories about Brigadier Gerard. Marbo had a huge influence on professional historians, playing a significant role in the formation of the “Napoleonic legend.” It was not by chance that the author of “Memoirs” gained worldwide fame. He not only created vivid and exciting pictures of great campaigns and battles, but also colorfully described the life and customs of Napoleonic army. The most important thing is that Marbo managed to convey the spirit of the time, the atmosphere of the era, and thereby forever won himself an honorable place in the world history of memoir literature. The book is intended for a wide range of readers. ÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷÷
