Austrian Commanders of the Napoleonic Wars 1792–1815

A concise but fact-packed account of the careers of more than 30 of these men, illustrated with portraits and meticulous colour plates.

Throughout the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wars, France’s most consistent enemy on land was the Austrian Empire.

Austria's huge armies played a central part in the several coalitions against France, from the 1790s, to the Austerlitz campaign of 1805, the closely-balanced battles of 1809, and the final upsurge of 1813-14. Contrary to the myth of rigid aristocratic conformity, the generals who led those armies were as diverse in origin and character as their regiments - some were princes of the blood, and some ex-rankers promoted for talent and courage.

This text gives concise but fact-packed accounts of the careers of more than 30 of these men, illustrated with portraits and meticulous colour plates.
