RUSSIA 1812: The Death of Napoleon's Grande Armee

1-241160

This is the companion book to Vilnius 1812. Contains comprehensive data about the Grande Armee and how it collapsed over the course of the campaign. Explores the organization and attrition down to regimental level by Corps, the fate of the prisoners and the logistics failure that contributed to its annihilation. To say the information is overwhelming is probably an underestimate. Illustrated in color throughout with over 450 illustrations including 208 artifacts, 47 orders of battle, 41 portraits, eight photographs, 81 uniforms, 12 maps, and 159 tables.
