France had a population of between 22 and 25 million at this time,
and maintained the largest standing army in Europe. In peacetime it
might have amounted to about 200,000 men; in times of war, it could
be anything up to half a million. A substantial part of Louis XV's
army consisted of numerous regiments of guard cavalry, heavy
cavalry and dragoon regiments, which were considered the best and
noblest part. These many units form the subject matter in this
first of five fascinating volumes [Men-at-Arms 296, 302, 304, 308
& 313] by Rene Chartrand covering the army of Louis XV's.
