Synopsis

"Truth is stranger than Fiction, and more interesting… the strange and improbable events among those here recorded are well-authenticated facts… his service under Napoleon, with its campaigns, battles and hardships… the escape from the Russian horsemen at Austerlitz… the destruction of the Inquisition at Madrid and escape from prison.

"Colonel Lehmanowsky enjoyed the friendship of the public men named, and attained great popularity as a lecturer. His labors and sacrifices on behalf of his loved Church have been told only in part.

"The story of this life was written years ago as an autobiography. The manuscript was entrusted to a certain firm to be published by them in parts; but was stolen while in their hands, or destroyed to please those who feared its appearance in print. In any event there has been no trace of it found for more than forty years. – Rev. William Sadtler, Introduction.
