Tiré-à-part
Selection of official and private letters intercepted at different times by Turkish and British warships, published by the British government in 1798 so as to « open Europe’s eyes » regarding the real reason for the Egyptian expedition and in order to give the true story of this « oriental tale » by publishing the actual experience of the army. The preface and foreword in the French edition make clear that the aim of the French publication is to give the Republic and the public access to these letters, whilst at the same time denouncing the enemy’s propaganda and falsehoods.
