The Surrender of Napoleon by Frederick Lewis Maitland,Sir Frederick Lewis Maitland K C B Pdf

On July 15th, 1815, after being defeated at Waterloo and deposed in Paris, the former Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte presented himself to Captain Frederick Maitland, commander of HMS Bellerophon, which was blockading the exit from Rochefort on the French Atlantic coast. This peaceful surrender precipitated one of the most complex and unresolved issues in British law and politics. In modern parlance, the British were faced with the prospect of making Napoleon the subject of 'extraordinary rendition'.

The Surrender of Napoleon by Frederick Lewis Maitland Pdf

The Surrender of Napoleon tells the true story of how the legendary French Emperor surrendered to the British on HMS Bellerophon shortly after his defeat at the Battle of Waterloo. While HMS Bellerophon was stationed off Rochefort in the Bay of Biscay observing French warships in the harbour, Napoleon had been defeated at the Battle of Waterloo on Sunday 18 June 1815. News reached Captain Frederick Lewis Maitland ten days later that Napoleon was planning an escape to America from the French Atlantic coast, possibly from Bordeaux. Believing that Rochefort was the more likely point of escape, Maitland sent two ships to cover the ports of Bordeaux and Arcachon whilst covering Rochefort himself. Maitland's instincts proved correct and Napoleon arrived at Rochefort in early July. Finding escape barred by Maitland's blockade and unable to remain in France, he authorized the opening of negotiations with the commander of the British warship off the coast. Maitland refused the request to allow Napoleon to sail for America, but offered to take him to England. The negotiations went on for four days, but eventually Napoleon agreed to terms and formally surrendered to Maitland on 15 July 1815 and was conveyed to Plymouth. The final decisions over Napoleon's fate were made by the British Government on 7 August 1815, and Napoleon and his staff were transferred to HMS Northumberland, where he was conveyed to exile on Saint Helena where he eventually died six years later. The Surrender of Napoleon is Maitland's detailed, tense and fascinating narrative of the French Emperor's desperate attempts to escape France and of his time on HMS Bellerophon. Originally published in a shorter form in 1826, this is the rarely told final chapter in Napoleon's career as a world leader, narrated by the man that experienced it firsthand

The Surrender of Napoleon by Frederick Lewis Maitland Pdf

The Surrender of Napoleon tells the true story of how the legendary French emperor surrendered to the British on HMS Bellerophon and the events between 24 May and 8 August 1815. While HMS Bellerophon was stationed off Rochefort in the Bay of Biscay observing French warships in the harbour, Napoleon has been defeated at the Battle of Waterloo. News had reached Rear Admiral Sir Frederick Lewis Maitland on 28 June that Napoleon was planning an escape to America from the French Atlantic coast, possible from Bordeaux. Believing that Rochefort was the more likely point of escape, Maitland also sent two ships to cover the ports of Bordeaux and Arcachon. With HMS Superb and a string of British frigates, corvettes and brigs watching the coast, there was no escape for Napoleon. Maitland's instincts proved correct and Napoleon arrived at Rochefort in early July. Finding escape barred by the patrolling HMS Bellerophon and unable to remain in France, he authorised the opening of negotiations with the commander of the British warship off the coast. Maitland refused the request to allow Napoleon to sail for America, but offered to take him to England. The negotiations went on for four days, but eventually Napoleon acquiesced. He embarked on 15 July with his staff and servants where he surrendered to Maitland. Maitland placed his cabin at the former emperor's disposal and sailed for England. She reached Torbay on 24 July, but was ordered to Plymouth, while a decision was made by the government over Napoleon's fate. She sailed again on 4 August and while off Berry Head on 7 August, Napoleon and his staff were removed to HMS Northumberland, which conveyed him to his final exile on Saint Helena. The Surrender of Napoleon is Maitland's detailed and stunning narrative of the French emperors time on HMS Bellerophon, which he originally published in 1826.
