Customer Reviews

Got it in French too!... rarely read about battles to the fore!
In fact it starts with Hanau, and covers all the battles of 1814.
I deducted one star because in the ORBATS there is a silly mistake... the first and second Chasseurs of the Guard appear TWICE in it!... and NO GRENADIERS at all... it is easy to find they were there and that it was not a case of having duplicate units at all...
Highly recommended if fan of the Andre Jouineau drawings (I am).
As in other books in my library the info about Brienne, Champaubert, Montmirail and Vauchamps is rather sketchy and confused...but at least (for once) THE VERY GOOD MAPS HELP A LOT!!!... and I consulted the book I own about it: 1814 La Campagne de France (Tranie-Carmigniani) to be left non the wiser.
A good rate price/quality... but can not vouch for the English Translation. Since ESSLING I buy them in French.

Hanau & Montmirail
Another of the Historire and Collections series that is a "must have" for the Napoleonic collector of battle books..Get the whole series..

Napoleon fighting again
this book is up to Histoire et collections usual high standard of text and illustrations. I would suggest reading other accounts to get a full picture but overall a very good book.
