Book excerpt: “An impressive source book on the conflict, high on information and data.”—Journal of the Society for Army Historical Research September 7, 1812, is by itself one of the most cataclysmic days in the history of war: 74,000 casualties at the Battle of Borodino. And this was well before the invention of weaspons of mass destruction like machine guns or breech-loading rifles. In this detailed study of one of the most fascinating military campaigns in history, George Nazfiger includes a clear exposition on the power structure in Europe at the time leading up to Napoleon’s fateful decision to attempt what turned out to be impossible: the conquest of Russia. Also featured are complete orders of battle and detailed descriptions of the opposing forces.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author covers one of the most explosive and most exciting periods of world history, spanning the time from the eruption of the French Revolution through the end of the Napoleonic wars (1789-1815). These twenty-six years of history saw the birth of nationalism and Western democracy, economic crisis and political convulsion, the growth of industrialism, the death of ancient traditions, and the birth and break-up of empire. It was the time of Napoleon, who gave his name to this period of tremendous change: the period in which the roots of modern Europe were planted. This work is intended as a broad review, devoting a majority of its attention to the military and political events and personalities of the period, while also surveying the major artistic, social and cultural events and personalities that formed this period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marco de Saint-Hilaire était déjà un auteur renommé pour son " Histoire de la Garde Impériale ", lorsqu'il conçut le projet de ce livre monumental. Retracer la campagne de Russie de 1812 dans les moindres détails, avec grand souci de vérité historique, tel fut son dessein qu'il réussit parfaitement. Evoquant la situation politique sur l'échiquier européen au début de 1812, Marco de Saint-Hilaire analyse les causes de la guerre, avec une grande perspicacité. Ensuite, tous les événements de cet immense désastre militaire se déroulent devant nos yeux : passage du Niémen, marche sur Witebsk, prise de Smolensk, bataille de la Moskowa, séjour à Moscou, bataille de Malojaroslavetz, combat de Krasnoë, passage de la Bérésina, sort des prisonniers... Un grand nombre de témoins oculaires viennent épauler le récit de l'auteur, basé sur les documents de premier ordre. Au fil des pages, passant du triomphe au désespoir, dans la chaleur étouffante de l'été russe et sous le vent glacial, le lecteur est entraîné à la suite de la Grande Armée dans son aventure la plus tragique. Le texte de l'édition originale était agrémenté de planches uniformologiques et de gravures, auxquelles nous aurons le plaisir d'ajouter plus de 350 documents, dans la majeure partie inédits, provenant d'outre-Rhin, ainsi qu'une multitude de cartes très détaillées extraites de l'Atlas du Colonel Boutourlin. Les ordres de bataille exhaustifs (jusqu'aux chefs de bataillon pour les Français, jusqu'aux états numériques et les noms des régiments pour les Russes), la liste nominative des pertes en officiers sont également fournis, de manière à suivre progressivement cette campagne tumultueuse.
