The French armed forces during the Napoleonic period, encompassing the Grande Armee, the navy, and what- and whomever else could bear arms, numbered over one million at the Empire's height.
This interesting, engrossing tome by a definite authority on the period, fills a long-neglected gap that helps us with our understanding of the period and our general knowledge of those that fought for France and Napoleon from 1792-1815. It also gives us a few surprises.
Exotic and esoteric units and fighting men grace the pages of this interesting volume, highlighted by the realistic, superb paintings of Francis Back, who also illustrated the author's books on Napoleon's navy and the French Army in the War of the American Revolution.
Here you will find the top or round hat as a definite, and quite handsome, item of military uniform, the French use of sepoys (native troops) in India, and the fortunes and foibles of France's overseas possessions.
This book is highly recommended. As I have mentioned before, if the book has Rene Chartrand's name on it, buy it-it is guaranteed to be well-research, well-written, and accurate.
