Book excerpt: Excerpt from 1800: Marengo and Hohenlinden Very much has been written on all that regards Napoleon's public and private life, his many campaigns and his pitiable end. If one more volume is now added to the rest, I trust I shall be excused when I explain that my ultimate purpose was to furnish what we do not appear to possess, namely, a conjoint account of what principally occurred in 1800 in the various theatres of war.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a tense, crowded thirty-three days in the autumn of 1799, Napoleon Bonaparte organized a coup and made himself dictator of France. Yet his position was precarious. He knew that France would accept his rule only if he gained military victories that brought peace. James Arnold, in this detailed and compelling account, describes the extraordinary campaigns that followed. At Marengo Bonaparte defeated the Austrians and his fellow general Jean Moreau beat the combined Austrian and Bavarian armies at Hohenlinden. These twin campaigns proved decisive. Bonaparte's dictatorship was secure and his enemies across Europe were forced into a 15-year struggle to overthrow him.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Napoleon Journal has earned critical acclaim for provocative battle and campaign studies (using translated European primary sources), original artwork and uniform illustrations, detailed color maps and orders-of-battle, reviews, travel guides, etc., celebrating the 200th anniversary of a fascinating and exciting period of history: the French Revolution and Age of Napoleon Bonaparte.After eight years of almost constant warfare, France's new leader, First Consul Napoleon Bonaparte, led his country to victory over the Second Coalition. It had been a close-run thing for France as the allied nations almost won the war in 1799. A flawed strategy, poorly executed, denied the Allies the fruits of their initial victories in Italy and Germany. After popular young General Bonaparte returned from Egypt, he seized control of the government in late 1799 and led a French army into Italy and defeated the Austrians at Marengo in June 1800. A final victory in December in Germany at Hohenlinden, General Jean Victor Moreau, led to the final collapse of the Second Coalition.

Download or read book Marengo written by T. E. Crowdy and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 14 June 1800 Napoleon Bonaparte fought his first battle as French head of state at Marengo in northern Italy. Unexpectedly attacked, Napoleons army fought one of the most intense battles of the French Revolutionary Wars. Forced to retreat, and threatened with encirclement, Napoleon saved his reputation with a daring counterattack, snatching victory from the jaws of defeat. This battle consolidated Napoleons political position and placed the crown of France within his reach.Meticulously researched using memoirs, reports and regimental histories from both armies, Marengo casts new light on this crucial battle and reveals why Napoleon came so close to defeat and why the Austrians ultimately threw their victory away. With the most detailed account of the battle ever written, the author focuses on the leading personalities in the French and Austrian camps, describing the key events leading up to the battle, and the complex armistice negotiations which followed. For the first time, the author exposes the full story of Carlo Gioelli, the enigmatic Italian double agent who misled both armies in the prelude to battle.
Download or read book The Second War of Coalition Volume 2 written by George Armand Furse and published by Leonaur Limited. This book was released on 2021-12-24 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The victorious march to two momentous battles of the Napoleonic Age George Furse was a colonel of the Black Watch regiment and an accomplished military historian and author. His writing was never less than serious, well researched and comprehensive. For 'The Second War of Coalition' (originally published under the inadequate title 'Marengo and Hohenlinden') Furse has referenced source material originally published in the French language including first-hand recollections and official documents. This Leonaur edition is being published in two unique volumes to enable us to include, for the first time, numerous illustrations of the events described. Volume two focusses on the invasion of Italy as French forces advanced from Ivrea to Milan and the Passage of the Po to the Battle of Montebello. Then followed the Battle of Marengo in June, 1800, fought near Alessandria in northern Italy, which is described in detail and depth. This volume concludes with the French victory at Hohenlinden in southern Germany, fought in December, 1800, in which the French army, under Moreau, decisively defeated the Austrians and Bavarians and brought about a victorious end to the war for the French. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.
Download or read book Three Napoleonic Battles written by Harold T. Parker and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 1983-06-06 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This narrative account of three Napoleonic battles adheres rather closely to the Aristotelian configuration of evolving tragedy. The historian succeeds in presenting herein events and character not only in historical reality but also in unities employed by the artist or tragedian. For a beginning of this lively, military story, Harold T. Parker chooses a portrayal of Napoleon at the height of his power, the battle of Friedland. The middle episode is concerned with Napoleon in his first serious personal check, the battle of Aspern-Essling. To complete the unity and to conclude the tragic progression, the author resurveys the episode of Napoleon's final defeat at the battle of Waterloo.
