It is probably true to say that there is more memoir literature relating to
the long (1808-13) French involvement in Spain than any other episode
in his life and reign. Apart fr om the important memoir contributions
from Savary, Bigarre, Talleyrand, Thiebault, Miot de Melito, Marmont,
Massena and, by no means least, 'King Joseph' himself, all previously
cited, the following are particularly important: J.B. Jourdan, Memoires
militaires, ed. Grouchy (Paris 1899); Martin Pamplona, Aperfus nouveaux
sur les campagnes des francais au Portugal (Paris 1818 ); A. de Laborde,
Voyage pittoresque et historique en Espagne (Paris 1818 ); Alphonse
Beauchamp, Memoires relatifi aux Revolutions d'Espagne (Paris 1824);
Manuel Godoy, Memoires du prince de Ia Paix, trans. Esmenard (Paris
1836).
The early years of Spanish involvement are discussed in Andre Fugier,
Napoleon en Espagne, I799-18o8 (Paris 1930); G. de Grandmaison,
L'Espagne et Napoleon (Paris 1931); G. Grasset, La Guerre d'Espagne 3
vols, (Paris 1932); J. Lucas Brereton, Napoleon devant l'Espagne (Paris
1946). Important background material, crucial for an understanding of
the Iberian cauldron, is contained in: John Lynch, Bourbon Spain,
IJOD-I8o8 (Oxford 1989); R. Herr, The Eighteenth-Century Revolution in
Spain (Princeton 1958); E.J. Hamilton, War and Prices in Spain
I6SI-I8oo (Cambridge, Mass. 1947); R. Herr, Rural Change and Royal
Finances in Spain at the End of the Eighteenth Century (LA 1989). Spanish
motivations are examined in J. Harbron, Trafalgar and the Spanish Navy
(1988). For the key figure of Manuel Godoy and his double game see: D.
Hilt, The Troubled Trinity: Godoy and the Spanish Monarchs (Tuscaloosa,
Ala. 1987); J. Chastenet, Godoy: Master of Spain, 1792-I8o8 (1953).
The events at Bayonne and the issue of the pro-French nobles who
rallied to Napoleon there are discussed in A. Sa vine, L 'Abdication de
