A classic book on Napoleonic warfare by the well known Philip Haythornthwaite. With the aid of profuse and detailed illustrations, this book examines the weaponry and equipment of the armies of Europe engaged in the French Revolution and Napoleonic Wars. Firearms of all descriptions, types of artillery, and bladed weapons are covered extensively. Much technical data is provided, however the emphasis is on the application of the weapons in the context of Napoleonic warfare, their effectiveness in action and how strategy and tactics were influenced by the weaponry.
