One complaint: too short. If Guillemin had treated his "Napoleon" with as much detail and depth as his curious war of 1870 (3 volumes 1 in the municipality), we expect that figure does Napoleonic cask never recovered, at least for its readers. Indeed, brevity and narrative shortcuts leave the impression that all this can be discussed. Nevertheless, what valuable insights on finance, on politicians in general and their shameful collusion with the business community to padlock the social order.
FYI, Napoleonic civil code: Art 415: All workers coalition in order to bid their work shall be liable to one month in prison to a minimum. From 2 to 5 years for instigators. Art 1781 In any dispute over wages, it is the employer who will be believed on his word, which will be binding on the portion of wages.
With the sinister Le Chapelier law of 1791, a very nice program.
