Author: ROBERT M. EPSTEIN
Title: Napoleon's Last Victory. And the Emergence of Modern War
Description: University Press of Kansas, 1994. Hardcover. Pp: 215. Presenting a significant new interpretation of Napoleonic warfare, Robert M. Epstein argues persuasively that the true origins of modern war can be found in the Franco-Austrian War of 1809. Epstein contends that the 1809 war - with its massive and evenly matched armies, multiple theaters of operation, new command-and-control schemes, increased firepower, frequent stalemates, and large-scale slaughter - had more in common with the American Civil War and subsequent conflicts that with the decisive Napoleonic campaigns that preceded it. ISBN: 9780700606641. Cond./Kwaliteit: Goed.
