Austerlitz 1805,
The Fate of Empires by Ian Castle Austerlitz is
undoubtedly one of the most famous battles of history. Not only was
it the first campaign Napoleon waged as Emperor of France, but also the
first great test for his Grande Armee. The Emperor himself regarded
it as his greatest victory and it undoubtedly won him a mastery of Europe
that would remain unbroken for almost a decade. Most accounts of the
campaign have until now been based almost exclusively on French sources,
but following extensive research in the Austrian archives Ian Castle is
now able to provide a far more balanced account of the Austerlitz
campaign. In this all new volume he chronicles the events that
climaxed on the field of Austerlitz.
