Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marie Louise and the Invasion of 1814 The army, inspired by a patriotism more fervent than that of the Parisians, did its duty and more than its duty. It fought and suffered with a heroism worthy of a better fate. It is hard to say which were the more admirable, the beardless youths or the gray haired veterans. Men like them would have saved France, if France could have been saved; but, in Spite of their tireless energy, their indomitable courage, they felt that they were doomed by fate. Napoleon, with all his genius, knew no more of those lucky. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
