Published from despatches, Blanc smuggled out this report despite close confinement, at the risk of severe penalties if discovered. The editor has added to this an account of the French diplomat Guillaume Le Jean, who was the French envoy to Theodore’s court in 1863 until his expulsion in the same year.
