Ten Years' Exile OrMemoirs of That Interesting Period of the Life of the Baroness De Stael-Holstein,Written by Herself, during the Years 1810, 1811, 1812, and 1813, and Now First Published from the Original Manuscript, by Her Son written by Baroness De Staeil-Holstein and edited by her son Augustus, Baron de Stael-Holstein.The date of the beginning of what Mme de Staël's admirers call her duel with Napoleon is not easy to determine. Judging from the title of her book Dix annees d'exil (Ten years of exile), it should be put at 1804; judging from the time at which it became pretty clear that the first man in France and she who wished to be the first woman in France were not likely to get on together, it might be put several years earlier. Napoleon said about her, according to the Memoirs of Mme. de Remusat, that she teaches people to think who never thought before, or who had forgotten how to think.This edition of Ten Years' Exile (Dix Années d´Exil) is the powerful memoir of Germaine de Staël´s tumultuous years fleeing Napoleon.
