"Of first order for Bonaparte's youth, but only for this period. Does not Marmont declare that he admires the young officer and despises the Emperor? These very detailed memoirs on all the campaigns of the Duke of Raguse therefore call for many reservations not only because of the late nature of their composition but also because of their desire to constantly present the author in a favorable light compared to Napoleon. This plea was refuted by Laurent de l'Ardèche in 1857". Tulard, 963. Very well documented work. Second lieutenant at 15, Marmont is already captain when he meets young Bonaparte at Toulon. He becomes his aide-de-camp and follows the general to Italy, then to Egypt.
