Excerpt from Letters Inédites du Maréchal Bugeaud, Duc d'Isly (1808-1849): Colligées Et Annotées Ce beau modèle du soldat français intéresse trop vivement notre armée, il en re?ète de façon trop intense l'âme généreuse, et il offre un tr0p noble exemple aux militaires de tous les temps pour qu'on ne puisse jamais assez l'étudier, ni examiner assez à fond tout ce qu 'il y avait dans le coeur du glorieux maréchal, de zèle, de noble ambition, d' indomptable courage et de patriotique fierté.

Louis Blanc paraît avoir compris que les merveilles de l’association dans l’industrie manufacturière ne pourraient suffire à créer l’abondance pour les masses, alors surtout que celles-ci travailleraient une ou deux heures de moins. Il a tourné ses regards vers les champs, non pour s’occuper des 20 millions d’ouvriers qui les exploitent si péniblement, et avec de si légers salaires, comparés à ceux des villes, mais pour y faire refluer le trop plein des cités.

(Fighting for Napoleon in Austria, Poland, Spain and the A...)
Fighting for Napoleon in Austria, Poland, Spain and the Alps Thomas Robert Bugeaud was the impoverished son of an aristocratic family which had narrowly escaped the guillotine of the Revolution. Necessity, rather than conviction, forced him reluctantly into the ranks of the Imperial Guard Grenadiers, where his position as a Velite put him on the fast track to higher rank. Bugeaud provides an interesting view of Napoleon's preparations for the invasion of Britain and recounts his experiences afloat in naval actions in the Channel. After Austerlitz and promotion he joins the Line Infantry as an officer. Poland and Pultusk brought battle and wounds. A transfer to Spain with the 116th Infantry flung Bugeaud headlong into the uprising of 1808 in Madrid and the bloody capture of Saragossa, followed by a war to the death with guerrillas until the retreat to France. The First Restoration brought colonelcy in the Bourbon army, but the 100 Days called Bugeaud back to the tricolour for fighting in the Alpine Campaign. From private to colonel in Napoleon's army-the early career of a man who would win his baton in the sands of North Africa.

Découvrez nos nouveauté sur Twitter https://twitter.com/BibliothequeHG EXTRAIT: Nous devons les pages suivantes à une bienveillance précieuse qui touche de très près à M. le maréchal Bugeaud. Ce qui rend ce récit vraiment remarquable à nos yeux, c’est qu’il peint, outre la bataille d’Isly, le général qui l’a gagnée. Nulle part le maréchal Bugeaud ne paraît mieux tel qu’il est ; nulle part son caractère et son génie militaires ne sont mieux exprimés. À côté du récit d’un grand évènement, nous trouvons dans les pages que nous publions le portrait d’un homme, et d’un homme qui a sa physionomie et sa destinée à part dans l’histoire de notre siècle.

He was born in Limoges on October 15, 1784, into a family of country squires who were later ruined by the Revolution of 1789, a member of a noble family of Périgord (Occitania), the youngest of thirteen children.
His education was cursory and prevented him from entering a military academy.
Growing up in rural France, he guarded his rustic manners and attachment to the land throughout his life. His education was cursory and prevented him from entering a military academy.
Bugeaud's army career nevertheless began in 1804, and he quickly rose in the ranks during Napoleon's Imperial wars. He participated in the difficult Spanish campaigns, in which he encountered widespread guerrilla warfare and became the foremost expert in counterinsurgency techniques on the European continent. Later he applied these lessons against Abd el-Kadir.
In 1834 he harshly repressed popular uprisings in Paris. Although initially hostile to the conquest of Algeria, Bugeaud went there in 1836 and defeated Abd el-Kadir, the leader of Algerian resistance.
This first African campaign was a military success, but by the Treaty of Tafna (1837), Bugeaud handed his adversary the sovereignty over the major portion of Algeria. Despite a scandal which erupted over secret financial clauses of this treaty, Bugeaud was named governor general of Algeria in 1840.
Aided by his powerful Parisian friends, especially L. A. Thiers, Bugeaud established a veritable proconsulate over Algeria. Militarily, Bugeaud imposed his conceptions of offensive warfare on the army. He trimmed heavy artillery from his contingents, adding to the mobility of his columns, and introduced the practice of burning the crops and the villages of all Algerians suspected of aiding Abd el-Kadir.
Chased from his capital, Tagdempt, Abd el-Kadir took refuge in Morocco. His presence there provoked a war with France.
Bugeaud defeated the Moroccan troops at the battle of Isly in 1844-a turning point in modern Moroccan history-after which he acquired the title Duke of Isly.
During the respite which Bugeaud gained when the defeated Moroccans evicted Abd el-Kadir and declared him an outlaw, the marshal repressed with ferocity a new insurrection in Algeria led by Bou Maza. Abd el-Kadir, profiting from this diversion, reappeared in western Algeria, only to be defeated for a last time in 1847.
That same year Bugeaud, on his own authority, led a military campaign into the Kabylie mountains south of Algiers. Disillusioned at being reprimanded by the French government for this independent action, he demanded to be replaced.
He died of cholera on June 18, 1849.
