Two of history's greatest commanders clash with the fate of Empires
at stake
In the Ulm campaign of 1805, Napoleon demonstrated his mastery of
the command of the Grande Armee-some 210,000 men-in a masterful
flanking movement which was designed to defeat the Austrian Army
under Mack in the Danube region before the intervention of the
Russian Army under Kutuzov could affect the outcome. This, the
third-and final-book in F.N Maude's trilogy on the campaigns of
Napoleon to be published by Leonaur, recounts an aspect of the 'War
of the Third Coalition' which is widely considered to be a
strategic masterpiece by the French Emperor. The battle of
Austerlitz would finalise victory and ensure the defeat of the
Austrians, but it would be Ulm which would confirm France as the
leading power in Europe. This history, combined with Maude's Jena
and Leipzig campaigns-also published by Leonaur-are essential
components of every Napoleonic library.
