Review
A worm s eye view of the command structure, organisation and supply of the Grande Armee which Napoleon used so brilliantly to lay all Europe at his feet. Military historian Colonel H.C.B. Rogers painstakingly analyses the organisation, tactics, equipment and organisation of the French soldiers who enjoyed an almost uninterrupted train of triumphs from the cannonade at Valmy to the gates of Moscow. The author seeks to show how the military genius of Napoleon, and the system he presided over turned, in Lord Wavell s words A ragged, mutinous, half-starved army and made it fight as it did . --Naval and Military Press
