Dictionaire Geographique - 1812
7/20/23 - I love this book from 1812 with maps of the world. I especially love the map of France with flags of European countries and America. I gave this map to my nephew, Eric Bottern. It also has six pages dedicated to images of coins. Interesting that this atlas was published in France in 1812, when French nationalism must have been at an all-time high. This was before the Russia campaign, which Napolean lost, before he was exiled to Elba, escaped from Elba and then defeated, in 1815, at Waterloo (just outside of Brussels) and then exiled to St. Helena, an island in the Atlantic off the coast of Africa.The "Dictionnaire Géographique" was a book published in 1812 by Vosgien and Goigoux. It was a universal geographical dictionary that contained information on the geography, history, and statistics of various regions around the world. The book was well-received and became a popular reference for scholars and geographers. It was later revised and updated by other authors, including Faber and Mellet, and continued to be used as a valuable resource for geographical information. Today, copies of the "Dictionnaire Géographique" can be found in various libraries and online bookstores.[1][2][3][4] Source: Perplexity.aihttps://prezi.com/p/6-pzuyiceuxd/napoleon-bonaparte-timeline/ Keyword: histtext
