Summary "Nouvelle relation de l'itinéraire de Napoléon, de Fontainebleau à l'Île d'Elbe" by le Comte de Waldbourg-Truchsess is a historical account written in the early 19th century, shortly after the events it describes. This book recounts the journey of Napoleon Bonaparte from his abdication at Fontainebleau to his exile on the Island of Elba, emphasizing his interactions with key figures and the political atmosphere surrounding his downfall. The narrative begins with the arrival of the commissioner appointed by the King of Prussia, who accompanies Napoleon on this significant journey. It details Napoleon's initial reluctance to leave, his reflections on his reign, and his conversations with ministers and military officials. Throughout the journey, Napoleon receives both disdain and support from the populace, highlighting the complexity of public sentiment towards him. The Comte presents a vivid portrayal of Napoleon's determination to reclaim his power, despite acknowledging the changing tides of politics. The book culminates with Napoleon's arrival at Elba, where he attempts to establish himself in a new role as a ruler while harboring ambitions for the future.
