| Summary | "Histoire du Consulat et de l'Empire" by Adolphe Thiers is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work serves as the fifth volume in a series that explores the history that follows the French Revolution, focusing on the political and military events during the Consulate and the Empire, particularly under Napoleon Bonaparte. The book delves into the dynamics of European politics and the shifting alliances that ensued during this tumultuous period, examining key figures and pivotal moments that shaped the course of history. The opening of the book sets the stage for the dramatic events that unfolded after the execution of the Duke of Enghien, highlighting how this incident galvanized opposition against France, leading to a significant shift in European alliances. It discusses the initial contemplation of a Franco-Prussian alliance, which quickly unraveled due to the rising tensions and caution within the Prussian court, alongside Russia's overtures towards Prussia following the incident. Additionally, the subsequent reactions across the continent, particularly in Russia and Austria, are explored, showcasing the delicate balance of power and the complex interplay of diplomacy that would lead to broader conflicts in Europe.
