Condizione: New. 1806 ed An excellent account of The Battle of Austerlitz, fought on 2 December 1805. This was a major victory for Napoleon Bonaparteâs French army against the combined forces of Russia and Austria. Located near the town of Austerlitz, the battle resulted in a decisive French triumph, forcing Austria out of the T…hird Coalition and significantly impacting the course of the Napoleonic Wars.ÂStutterheim was well placed to write a history of this battle, having led a cavalry brigade in Michael von Kienmayerâs Advance Guard column at the battle, which is considered one of Napoleonâs most brilliant military victories and is remembered for its strategic genius and its impact on the geopolitical landscape of Europe.ÂAbout the book:The first French edition was published anonymously in 1805 under the title âLa bataille dâAusterlitzâ. Major Pine-Coffin, who was an English army officer and colonial administrator who served as Governor of St. Helena from 1821 to 23, translated Stutterheimâs work into English in 1806. Pine-Coffin bemoaned the fact that he could not find a suitable map of the area for his edition, so for this N&MP edition we have added a useful map of the battle from Sir Archibald Alisonâs Atlas.The notes âby a French officerâ are ascribed to Napoleon.At the battle Napoleon employed a strategic deception, feigning weakness to lure the enemy into a vulnerable position. Despite being outnumbered, Napoleonâs forces decisively defeated the allied army, inflicting significant casualties and losses. This is an important first-hand account of a battle that marked the high watermark of superior.
