Oh wow, I didn't know that about Jeremy! Ah wonderful devotion to his role :)
That is fascinating to know how popular French culture was, including among the Russians, at the time of the wars. I haven't read War and Peace yet, but it is comforting to know that there was some chivalry in that war, where the wounded would be treated well as POWs. Brings humanity to such a sprawling event which affected millions.
