| Summary | "Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte — Volume 03" by Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume delves into the complexities of Napoleon Bonaparte's military campaigns and personal experiences in Egypt during the late 18th century. It offers readers a detailed glimpse into both the strategic challenges faced by Bonaparte and the socio-political dynamics he navigated as he attempted to establish French control over Egypt. The opening of the memoir sets the stage for the tumultuous events that unfolded during Bonaparte's campaign in Egypt. It recounts his arrival in Cairo and his immediate initiatives to organize the provinces through the establishment of local councils (divans) and personnel to maintain order. However, setbacks quickly arise, including military defeats and losses at sea that fuel discontent among the troops, which Bourrienne describes in vivid detail. As Bonaparte grapples with the realities of his ambitious plans, the narrative focuses on his emotional state amidst the growing dissatisfaction within his ranks, ultimately portraying a leader caught between vision and practicality during a critical phase of his career.
