Born in 1813 and died in 1893, Albert Du Casse was a French historical writer associated above all with the Napoleonic era. He is credited on works such as Les Rois Frères de Napoléon Ier and on editions of Joseph Bonaparte's memoirs and political correspondence, which he organized and annotated.
Rather than being known mainly as a novelist, he appears to have built his reputation through historical compilation, editing, and commentary. That role made him useful to later readers: he helped gather documents, letters, and recollections tied to Napoleon I and his circle into book form.
Reliable biographical detail available in the sources found here is fairly limited, so it is safest to describe him as a 19th-century French author-editor focused on Napoleonic history. No suitable verified portrait image could be confirmed from the pages reviewed.
