Klappentext
Excerpt from The Chronicles of an Old Campaigner M. De La Colonie, 1692-1717: Translated From the French
By the time I had reached the age of ten years I had learned to read and write in a market town in Perigord, my native country. I was the sixth child in a family by no means well endowed with this world's goods. The ancestors of my father and mother were well known by their services to the public and by the important posts that they had held, but certain reverses of fortune had so reduced their descendants that they could no longer maintain the position held by the family during a period of many centuries.
