Download or read book Giant of the Grand Si cle written by John A. Lynn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1997-06-13 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An 'invisible giant', the seventeenth-century French army was the largest and hungriest institution of the Bourbon monarchy. Combining social and cultural emphases with more traditional institutional and operational concerns, this book examines the army in depth, studying recruitment, composition, discipline, motivation, selection of officers, leadership, administration, logistics, weaponry, tactics, field warfare and siegecraft. The portrait that emerges differs from what current scholarship might have predicted. Instead of claiming that a 'military revolution' transformed warfare, Lynn stresses evolutionary change. This work also offers surprising insights into absolutism and the relationship between the monarchy and aristocracy. Questioning widely held assumptions about state formation and coercion, Lynn argues that this standing army was primarily devoted to border defence and only rarely to internal repression.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study has been deliberately restricted to an examination of the tactical organisation and handling of the European 'teeth arms' of the late seventeenth and the first half of the eighteenth centuries. That is to say, its four main sections deal with the Horse, the Foot, the Trains of Artillery, and the Engineer Services of the period, describing their representation, organization, equipment, training and tactical employment. The treatment is not restricted to the examination of a single army alone: most attention is devoted to the English and French forces, which serve as controls, but comparisons are drawn with Dutch, Swedish, Prussian, Austrian, Russian and Turkish practices on a more limited scale to demonstrate regional differences and peculiarities. Thus it is hoped that something of an overview of European military practice at the tactical level will emerge"--Introduction.
