LUTZEN & BAUTZEN:Napoleon’s Spring Campaign

One army lost in the Russian winter, Napoleon raised another to keep his grip on Europe. A tired Russian Army and a raw Prussian force marched to meet him. ‘Lutzen and Bautzen’ is a detailed and masterful study of a misunderstood and little covered campaign. Yet it was a war between titans as Napoleon led his conscripts to crush a foe worthy to face him. From the great battles of Lutzen and Bautzen to the skirmishes with marauding Cossacks, George Nafziger follows the complete campaign in Germany from top to bottom, with a wealth of detail. A great researcher, George Nafziger uncovers the secrets of one of the greatest of Napoleonic campaigns. This new edition incorporates a new set of images, and newly commissioned maps.

NAPOLEON’S REGIMENTS:Battle Histories 1792-1815

8×10, (60) illust/charts, details the combat history & officer casualties for over four hundredfrench regiments, biblio, index.

This is the ultimate reference guide to the individual regiments of the French Army from the Revolutionary Era to the final days of Napoleon. In this one volume work, Digby Smith examines all of the combat arms of the French Army. Included are the regiments of the Imperial Guard, the line and light infantry regiments, the line cavalry, the artillery (both foot, horse, marine, and bridging units), colonial and auxiliary troops, and units do not neatly fall into these categories, such as the Chasseurs d’Orient and the Regiment de Pioniers Blancs. Excluded, however, are those units that were not combat arms or were temporary organizations, such as the ‘Sacred Squadron’ of 1812. Some foreign units are included, but only those considered being part of the French Army (the four foreign infantry regiments, the Swiss Regiments, and the Vistula Legion, among others).
