Philips, Peter translatorTHE RUSSIAN PATRIOTIC WAR OF 1812 VOLUME 1: The Russian Official History The Russian Patriotic War of 1812 is the only publicly available translation into English of Bogdanovich's official history of the Russian forces' involvement in the fight against Napoleon and his allies in Russia in 1812. This translation also includes extracts from Ivan Liprandi's critique of Bogdanovich's work. Examines the causes of the war and an account of the operational planning by Russian forces for their retreat from the borders into the Empire, dispelling the myth of the non-existence of any premeditated plan. The logistics of the forces on both sides are examined, along with highly detailed descriptions of the operations from Russia's western borders to beyond Smolensk, as well as operations on the northern and southern flanks. The composition of the forces are shown as clearly as possible, as are force numbers, casualties on each side, and so on. The maps attached to this work were drafted in such a way that they might serve to explain entire phases of the war. The battle plans show the locations of dominant terrain according to detailed state surveys, while villages, forests and roads have been copied from previously published plans. Contains 15 maps.1 vol, 392 pgs 2024 UK, HELION AND COMPANY NEW-pb, available mid February 2024 ......$60.00 discount: :15% rct ..see our 19TH CENTURY
