It considers such practices as contributions, fire-raids, and blockades before sieges. The author relies extensively on archival sources, and in many cases explores events that have been passed over by similar studies. Louis XIV and his generals used partisan warfare to fit a strategy of exhaustion to ensure territorial conquest. The French army's reliance on partisan warfare reveals the limitations of the war-making potential of Louis XIV's state; at the same time it leads to the emergence of a more modern practice of military operations to pursue theater-strategic objectives.History of warfare ;v. 18.Dutch War, 1672-1678FranceHistoryLouis XIV, 1643-1715NetherlandsHistory1648-1714FranceHistory, MilitaryFranceForeign relations1643-1715Dutch War, 1672-1678.949.2/04Satterfield George877519MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910816977103321Princes, posts and partisans1959551UNINA
