The correspondence between first cousins Charles-Louis-Napoleon (Napoleon III), son of Louis Bonaparte and Napoleon-Joseph-Charles (Prince Napoleon, known since his childhood by the nickname “Plon -Plon”), son of Jerome Bonaparte, from October 1837, to October 1872. At the age of 14, after the death of his mother, Plon Plon spent a year in Arenenberg, Switzerland, with his cousin, fourteen years his senior. A lasting friendship ensued, not without storms and different politics.
