| Summary | "Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte — Volume 02" by Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The memoirs provide an intimate glimpse into the life and mind of Napoleon Bonaparte during pivotal moments in his military and political career, as narrated by his private secretary. This volume delves into the complexities of Napoleon's campaigns, his relationships with his contemporaries, and the intricate political maneuvers of the time. The beginning of the memoir sets the stage in 1797, shortly after the signing of the preliminaries of peace in the Italian campaign. Bourrienne recounts his arrival at Leoben, where he reconnects with Bonaparte, highlighting the shift in their relationship as Napoleon rises to prominence and glory. In this opening section, readers witness Bonaparte's aspirations to advance toward Vienna thwarted by the Directory's orders and the resulting tensions that arise from political discord and military ambitions. The narrative captures Bonaparte's dissatisfaction with the Directory's decisions and portrays his strategic calculations as he navigates both military endeavors and his political landscape.
