Note 6 — Chapter I
Reading edition
See, for example, the very interesting story told by Marshal Jourdan in his Mémoires (p. 9) of the long conversation which the emperor had with him at Verona on June 16, 1805: ‘Tant pour l’affermissement de ma dynastie que pour la sûreté de France,’ concluded Napoleon, ‘un Bourbon sur le trône d’Espagne est un voisin trop dangereux.’
