Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Life of Napoleon Buonaparte, Emperor of the French, Vol. 3 of 3: With a Preliminary View of the French Revolution
The Empe'ror Napoleon received that declaration of war, with the calmness of one by whom it had been for some time expected. It was better, he said, to have a declared enemy than a doubtful ally. By the Prussians at large it was heard with all the rapture of gratified hope, and the sacrifices which they made, not willingly only, but eagerly, show more completely than any thing else can, the general hatred against France, and the feelings which that nation had excited during her career of success.
