This rare signed letter by Napoleon Bonaparte, dated July 30, 1795, captures a pivotal moment in his early rise to power. Written when he still signed as “Buonaparte”—his original Corsican-Italian name—this remarkable document predates his transformation into the Emperor of France. Penned during his tenure as Commander-in-Chief of the Army of the Interior, the letter is addressed to the Minister of War, acknowledging the resignation of C. Charles François Camus—an administrative decision from the formative years of post-Revolutionary France.
