In this volume, Colonel Maude follows Napoleon as he sets out with his finest Grande Arme?e, from the camp of Boulogne where they have been well-drilled and trained, to oppose the Austrians for a further round of hostilities which had only really been suspended briefly between 1800-1805. The basic premise of the series of books was that "Napoleon did in fact possess during his later years a fixed method in strategy, which he invariably followed whenever topographical conditions permitted. This method enabled him to be absolutely certain of accumulating at the decisive point of the battlefield a crushing numerical superiority, no matter what plans his opponents might have formed;" It was the opening of the 1805 campaign that truly showed what Napoleon had learnt since his initial campaigns in Italy on a vast scale, now the corps d'arme?e he commanded dwarfed the entire armies of previous wars. His articulated, co-ordinated march through and round the Black Forest, stumped the veteran commander of the Austrian forward army, the "unfortunate Mack", and despite some less than sterling work by some of his subordinates netted an entire army into the "bag". Some of Napoleon's troops would found a new way of fighting, that he made "war using our feet".A fascinating book, in an excellent series. 410 4$aThe Special Campaigns Series 517 $aSpecial Campaigns Series 676 $a940.27 700 $aMaude$b C.B., late R.E. , Colonel Frederic Natusch$01371119 701 $aPublishing$b Pickle Partners$01077764 712 02$aPickle Partners Publishing Staff,$4clb 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910164077003321 996 $aThe Ulm Campaign - 1805$93399920 997 $aUNINA
