Description: Description: Published by William Heinemann in 1899, this memoir provides a gripping first-hand account of Sergeant Bourgogne's experiences during Napoleon's catastrophic Russian campaign. Edited and translated from the French original by Paul Cottin and Maurice Hénault, the memoir is an invaluable historical document detailing the horrors of the retreat from Moscow. Condition report: Overall, this copy is in good condition. This is a former club book from the United Service Club, Calcutta, with stamps throughout, including on the title page. The book is half-leather bound, with minor edge wear and some light chipping to the top left corner of the back board. The gutters adjacent to the endpapers have been taped down, though the binding remains firm. Pages are lightly tanned with occasional club stamps, and there are small tears to the corners of the tissue guard and title page. There is a sticker from the Bengal United Service Club on the back cover.
