About this book
Constant, who served as Napoleon's first valet de chambre, wrote these recollections of the emperor's private life, first published in French in 1830 and translated by Walter Clark in 1895. The work runs to three volumes of thirty-one chapters each, plus a closing envoi, with portraits of Josephine, Marie Louise, the King of Rome and marshals such as Ney and Davout. The translator's preface says Napoleon is shown in undress, faults and virtues alike, and that Prince Napoleon attacked the book's authenticity while the translator saw no good reason to doubt it.
