A nice love story, monarchy from both sides of the English Chanel,and not to sad an end. With all of these government downfalls today in the Middle East this was a much more civilized couple.Poor Eugenie losing her son in the English war in Africa. ( ) 1615 Napoleon III and Eugenie, by Jaspar Ridley (read 2 Feb 1981) This book is just wonderful reading. The author knows how to write excellent biography and this book is almost perfect. Napoleon III was born 20 Apr 1808 to Hortense de Beauharnais, wife of Louis Bonaparte and both stepdaughter and sister-in-law of the Emperor Napoleon I. He died on 9 Jan 1872 at Camden Place in Chislehurst, England. His wife Eugenie was born 5 May 1826 and died 11 July 1920. I was fascinated by Napoleon's life before he gained power. I was also surprised at the tyranny which he imposed on France when he staged his coup d'etat in 1852. I do not find Napoleon III an admirable figure, though one does feel sorry for him after the 1870 War broke out. I rather liked Eugenie, and the account of her years after 1872 was interesting. A very, very good book, well worth reading. Zeige 2 von 2 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
"Louis-Napole?on Bonaparte (20 April 1808? 9 January 1873) was the first President of the French Republic and, as Napoleon III, the ruler of the Second French Empire. He was the nephew and heir of Napoleon I. Elected President by popular vote in 1848, he initiated a coup d'e?tat in 1851, before ascending the throne as Napoleon III on 2 December 1852, the forty-eighth anniversary of Napoleon I's coronation. He ruled as Emperor of the French until 4 September 1870. He holds the distinction of being both the first titular president and the last monarch of France ... Don?a Mari?a Eugenia Ignacia Augustina de Palafox-Portocarrero de Guzma?n y Kirkpatrick, 16th Countess of Teba and 15th Marquise of Ardales (5 May 1826? 11 July 1920), known as Euge?nie de Montijo (French pronunciation: {7f200b}[ø?eni d montixo]), was the last Empress consort of the French from 1853 to 1871 as the wife of Napoleon III, Emperor of the French."--Wikipedia.
