Rewissiscences of Talleyand from Private Letters
A literary chronicle reviews Madame Colmache’s two volume edition of the reminiscences of Talleyrand. It praises the portrait of the prince at an early age and the vivid, sparkling dialogue attributed to Talleyrand, comparing the writing to Grammont. An extended extract describes a boyish scene with the young Talleyrand at a nurse’s door, his cradle of memory, and the moving reunion with the bailiff and Mere Rigaut as the boy is carried away on horseback.
