6. The French Revolutionary Wars 1787-1802
Blanning, T.C.W

Paperback with color illustrated front cover. Includes index. "The French Revolutionaries waged total war. Mobilising the largest army yet seen in Europe, they conquered most of the continent with amazing speed. Their war was a war of movement, aggression and action, punctuated by some of the most dramatic battles in military history--Valmy, Jemappes, Fleurus, Arcola, Marengo and Hohenlinden, to name only a few. They also sought ideological conquest, forcing the people they liberated to be free in the French manner whether they liked it or not. The military and political progress of the revolutionary armies is narrated and analysed in this important new study, with special attention paid to the legacy of the old regime, the remarkable resilience displayed by the old regime powers, the reasons for the revolutionaries' success on land--and the reasons for their failure at sea" [from the back cover]. ISBN 0-340-56911-5. A terrific, scarce, recent study of the wars fought by the French revolutionary government and by Napoleon before becoming Emperor. Book is in Fine/As New Condition.. Fine.
