Introduction The Diary of a Napoleonic Foot Soldier: Campaign of 1806 and 1807 Campaign of 1809 Campaign of 1812 and 1813 Historical Appraisal of Walter's Chronicle by Frank E. Melvin Notes to the Diary Writing Home: Six Letters Notes to the Letters About the Illustrations Chronology Place Names Reading Suggestions
Synopsis
Eighteen-year-old German stonemason Jakob Walter served in the Grand Army of Napoleon between 1806 and 1813. His diary intimately records his trials: the long, grueling marches in Prussia and Poland, the disastrous Russian campaign, and the demoralizing defeat in a war few supported or understood. It is at once a compelling chronicle of a young soldier's loss of innocence and an eloquent and moving portrait of the profound effects of all wars on the men who fight them. Also included are letters home from the Russian front, previously unpublished in English, as well as period engravings and maps from the Russian/Soviet and East European collections of the New York Public Library. "Vivid and gruesome ... but also a story of human fortitude. ... It reminds us that the troops Napoleon drove so mercilessly were actually more victims than victors--a side of Napoleon that should not be forgotten." -- Chicago Tribune

- a***i (655)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI ordered three books from this seller (over $100) and it was an unpleasant experience. I ordered this listed hardback copy of the book from the seller along with two other hardback books. Two of the books arrived and were paperback books and one was a hardback book but it was badly damaged (sent photos of damage). I messaged the seller and got an automated reply that the books had shipped. I messaged again and got no reply. Order at your own risk.
