Omschrijving

""The History of Hortense: Daughter of Josephine, Queen of Holland, Mother of Napoleon III"" is a biographical book written by John S. C. Abbott. The book tells the story of Hortense de Beauharnais, the daughter of Josephine Bonaparte and stepdaughter of Napoleon Bonaparte, who went on to become the Queen of Holland and the mother of Napoleon III. The book explores Hortense's life from her childhood to her reign as Queen of Holland, her turbulent marriage to Louis Bonaparte, and her relationship with her son Napoleon III. The author delves into Hortense's personal life, her struggles, her achievements, and her legacy. The book provides a fascinating insight into the life of one of the most important women of the 19th century and her impact on European history.1870. With Engravings. An historical account of Hortense, one of the world's noblest women. Hortense's father fell beneath the slide of the guillotine; her mother was imprisoned and doomed to die; and she and her brother were turned penniless into the streets. By the marriage of her mother with Napoleon, she became the daughter of the Emperor, and one of the most brilliant and illustrious ladies of the imperial court. The triumph of the Allies sent her into exile, where her influence and her instruction prepared her son to contribute powerfully to the restoration of the Empire, and to reign with ability which is admired by his friends and acknowledged by his foes. The mother of Napoleon III never allowed her royally-endowed son to forget, even in the gloomiest days of exile and sorrow, that it might yet be his privilege to reestablish the Republican Empire, and to restore the dynasty of the people from its overthrow by the despotic Allies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
