To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

They are asking me for but a single city of Louisiana, but I already regard the whole A Diplomatic Drama : the Great Purchase. 67 colony as lost^ and it seems to me that in the hands of this rising power it will be more useful to the policy and even to the com- merce of France than if I should attempt to keep it." The next day he summoned Barbe Marbois and delivered to him one of his shorty sententious orations of command: "Irresolution and deliberation are no longer in season; I re- nounce Lou...isiana. It is not New Orleans that I cede; it is the whole colony, without reserve. I know the price of what I aban- don.* I have proved the importance I attach to this province, since my first diplomatic act with Spain had the object of recov- ering it. I renounce it with the greatest regret; to attempt ob- stinately to retain it would be folly. I direct you to negotiate the affair. Have an interview this very day with Mr. Living- ston." Talleyrand, however, had seen the determination of Bona- parte and determined to keep a hand in the negotiations.
