Mémoires de Madame la Marquise de Larochejaquelin

Seconde Édition, Revue et Corrigée
1815

This page links to scans of the two maps from Madame la Marquise de Larochejaquelin's "Mémoires", which give the history of the "Revolt in the Vendée".

Marie Louise Victoire la Marquise de Larochejaquelin was the sister-in-law of Henri de Larochejaquelin, royalist and leader of the counter-revolution of La Vendée. Henri is the hero of Anthony Trollope's "La Vendée". Trollope obtained much of his information from this work (or from the English-language edition of it which was also published in 1815).
