Louis Alexandre Berthier LS as a Maj. General
<B>Louis Alexandre Berthier Letter Signed as a Major General.</B></I> One page, 8.25” x 12.5”, Austerlitz, February 14 no date , in French. Berthier was Napoleon's Chief of Staff and was later made a Marshal of the French Empire. Though the reference to Austerlitz would date this letter to 1805, Berthier was by then already a Marshal so further research would certainly be in order for this document. With the usual fold creases, toned, especially at the margins, with a later small biographical sketch of Berthier mounted under the body of the letter, else very good. <I>Ex. Henry E. Luhrs Collection.</B></I> <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
