| Summary | "Memoirs of Napoleon Bonaparte — Complete" by Louis Antoine Fauvelet de Bourrienne is an autobiographical historical account written in the late 19th century. This work provides a personal perspective on the life of one of history's most controversial figures, Napoleon Bonaparte, focusing specifically on the author's experiences as his private secretary. The memoirs capture key moments in Napoleon's life from his childhood through his rise to power and, ultimately, his downfall, painting a complex portrait of both the man and the historical period in which he lived. The opening of the memoir begins with Bourrienne recounting his early relationship with Napoleon, starting from their time together at the Military School of Brienne. It details Napoleon's early life, education, and character, emphasizing his aptitude for mathematics and his early ambitions. Bourrienne provides insights into Napoleon's ambitions, his formative experiences, and the small events that shaped his future. He dispels myths about Napoleon's origins and character, presenting a more nuanced view of the young man who would grow into a significant historical figure. This beginning sets up a larger narrative that promises to explore the complexities of Napoleon's life, including his friendships, military campaigns, and political maneuvers.
