NAPOLEON'S TRIUMPH: La Grande Armee Versus the Tsar's Army - The Friedland Campaign 1807

NAPOLEON'S TRIUMPH: La Grande Armee Versus the Tsar's Army - The Friedland Campaign 1807
by Arnold, James R. and Reinertsen, Ralph R.

1-197200

Detailed orders of battle, images, and 39 maps for the Battle of Friedland

Using primary sources gleaned from libraries and archives in Europe and the United States, Napoleon's Triumph describes Napoleon's amazing reversal of fortune. It relates the winter battles that blunted the Russian offensive and then turns to the complex, dramatic Siege of Danzig. Renewed campaigning in the spring witnessed yet another surprise Russian offensive.

But for the leadership of Marshal Michel Ney, Bennigsen would have removed a major French piece from the strategic chessboard. Instead came Napoleon's counteroffensive leading to the Battle of Heilsberg, Napoleon's least-understood major battle. The decisive triumph at Friedland occurred four days later, an encounter heretofore shrouded by biased interpretations, one designed to burnish Napoleon's image, the other to explain away a bad Russian defeat.

Lavishly illustrated with portraits, drawings, paintings, and maps, and supplemented with detailed appendices on the strengths and composition of the rival forces, Napoleon's Triumph provides an original interpretation of the 1807 campaign.
