Napoleon Bonaparte's First Campaign: Italy 1796-97 and the Defeat of the Austrian Armies (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9780857061904)

An expert evaluation of the first battles of the Napoleonic epoch

Sargent was a superb military historian and students will discover his analysis of the campaign of Marengo-published by Leonaur-is an insightful perspective of the military genius who would one day crown himself emperor of the French. In this companion piece Sargent once again turns his attention to the early phases of Napoleon's career, at the time when he was General Bonaparte, commanding his revolutionary forces in Italy at the close of the eighteenth century. As usual Sargent's text is concisely delivered providing students with an excellent insight into the essentials of the campaign and the great man's strategic genius. Available in soft cover and hard cover with dust jacket.
