Hausmann fought as part of Napoleon’s troops from 1805 to 1812, when he was part of the disastrous attempt to invade Russia. He survived that campaign, and became part of the Bavarian contingent that subsequently turned against the Emperor. His letters and diaries, inherited and translated by his great-granddaughter Cynthia and annotated by a historian, give an insight into the everyday life of a soldier at the time.
