I was wondering if somebody could point me to more information about general Loison aka "Maneta", of questionable reputation. I have already found some sources in German (some rather dubious tales from his time in Switzerland, some more from his service under Ney in Tyrol 1805 and remarks from Hamburg during the last years of the empire). I would be particularly interested in (online) Portuguese accounts from the first French invasion under Junot. Has anybody come across anything of that sort?
Many thanks in advance!
One of the first papers published by the Napoleon Series was on General Loison. https://www.napoleon-series.org/research/biographies/c_loison.html
