Additional information
by Gustav Joseph Fiebeger (Author)
An expert examination of the first campaigns of a military genius
Gustav Fiebeger has approached his analysis of General Bonaparte's campaign of 1796-7 in Italy against Austrian and Sardinian forces on several levels. His book concentrates on delivering as much information as possible in the fewest words, so this a work of little literary style. Nevertheless, few relevant issues escape the author's attention here as he critically examines the opposing commanders, the political background to events, the strategic and tactical movement of troops, configurations of the armies, Napoleons own comments and the military situations and outcomes of conflict. The causes of Napoleon's success are examined in the conclusion of this work which will be an invaluable companion piece to any study of the early wars of the Napoleonic age and victories of the French Revolutionary armies. Available in soft cover and hard cover with dust jacket.
