Description: I am offering for sale an original four page 1813 Connecticut Courant Newspaper which contains the text of the British-Russian Peace Treaty, multiple Bulletins of the French and Russian Armies and numerous articles about French Emperor Napoleon Bonaparte, the French invasion of Russia and the Battle of Moscow. It includes a bulletin of the French Grand Army that states, "On the one side, the Kremlin has been armed and fortified and at the same time it has been mined in order to blow it up. Some think the Emperor will march upon Toula and Kalouga to pass the winter in these provinces and occupy Moscow by a garrison in the Kremlin. Others suppose the Emperor will blow up the Kremlin and burn the public establishments which remain and that he will approach within a hundred leagues of Poland to establish his winter quarters in a friendly country and near to receive everything which exists in the magazines of Dantzic, Kowno, Wilna & Minsk and recover from the fatigues of war." It is in very good condition with age appropriate wear and patina. Each page measures 19 inches x 13.25 inches.
