329-SAINT-CHAMANS (Alfred-Armand-Robert de). Memoirs, 1802-1832. Paris, Plon, 1896, in-8, 542 pp, portrait-frontispiece, index, Bradel-style long-grain red half-maroquin, cover preserved (Pagnant). First edition. Tulard, 1295: "Precious testimony to Soult's campaigns in Spain and Portugal, which provides a complement to the unfinished memoirs of the Duke of Dalmatia." "Saint-Chamans refused to rally to Napoleon during the Hundred Days. He was appointed colonel of the dragoons of the Guard on the return of Louis XVIII, and inspector of cavalry in 1822, taking part in the Spanish expedition he prepared for the Pyrenees. He was reformed and retired by Louis-Philippe in 1831. His memoirs of the Restoration are of excellent quality and contain a wealth of information on court life, politics and military affairs."
