Generals Kleber Sanson Berthier Bessieries Rampon and Andreossy all held important commands; Kleber "undoubtedly one of the greatest generals of the French revolutionary epoch . as a second in command he was not excelled by any general of his time" Encyclopedia Britannica; Sartelon was responsible for provisioning the army; Barras Carnot and Cambaceres helped lead the Directory through this period; Commodore Smith led the British forces to important land and sea victories especially in Syria; and Saint Hillaire was one of the important members of the scientific efforts that were the expedition's lasting contribution. Especially remarkable is the seven-item archive of Kelber autographs including three as commander-in-chief of French forces in Egypt more than have appeared at auction in the past 40 years ABPC 1976-2017 shows four sales during the period. The beautifully hand-colored plan of Alexandria is rare in trade with no copies recorded at auction for the past 40 years ABPC 1976-2017; RareBookHub.<br/><br/>Following his successes in northern Italy 1796-1797 Napoleon pondered a move father east furthering a decades old discussion of the possibility of annexing Egypt as a French colony suggesting that such a move would protect French trade interests and undermine British influence there particularly as potential disruptions to its commerce and access to India and the East Indies; in addition France might establish scientific and other intellectual examinations of culture in the region. Although the military efforts eventually failed the scientists who accompanied Napoleon's army discovered the Rosetta Stone creating Egyptology as a field of study and recorded many other important previously unknown aspects of life history archaeology etc. concerning the Near East. The military expedition started off successfully with the occupation of Malta in May 1798 and eluding the British navy landed successfully in Egypt in early July routed the opposition and established headquarters in Cairo by the end of the month. Despite the near destruction of the French fleet in the Bay of Abukir by Admiral Nelson and his fleet and persistent uprisings in the native population Napoleon consolidated his power and had full control of Egypt in the fall. Early in 1799 the Ottomans sent several armies into the near east and Napoleon continued his offense there chalking up wins in Jaffa Haifa and Mount Tabor but was unable to take Acre after a two-months' siege declared victory and returned to Egypt to earn his greatest victory of the expedition defeating local armies at Giza in late July. Having restored his reputation an not particularly liking what he saw of the political situation either in Egypt or France he returned home in late August 1799 leaving Gen. Jean-Baptiste Kelber in command of the expedition forces. Kleber defeated his opponents mostly local troops again at the battle of Heliopolis in March 1800 and then suppressed an insurrection in Cairo but in late June he was assassinated by a Syrian student Gen. Jean-Francois de Menou taking his place as commander. Following a disastrous battle of Alexandria in March 1801 and siege of that city by the British Menou capitulated the terms allowing the French army to return to France. <br/><br/> Jules Rey hardcover books
