1815 RUSSIAN Campaign French Napoleon Invasion Scottish Ker Porter MAP Moscow Robert Ker Porter was a Scottish diplomat who in the early 19th-century was appointed royal historical painter to Alexander I of Russia. He became close friends with the Tsar and married his daughter the princess, which kept his home in Russia for most of the first half of the 1800s. Because he was well acquainted with Russian military men, he published an important account of the events in 1812, particularly the French invasion of Russia. This 1815 edition of Porter's 'Narrative of the Campaign in Russia in the Year 1812' includes a folding map of the French Army and their pursuit of Moscow.
