Beschreibung
Available for the first time in English, Bogdanovich's Russian History of the War of 1813 continues where the History of the War of 1812 left off. In describing the events of 1813, the author strives to give an accurate portrayal of one of the most important years in European history and pays tribute to the service of the Russian army in the liberation of Germany. Russia, of course, could not defeat Napoleon alone. But the Russians, having begun the war in Prussia and the Duchy of Warsaw without the assistance of allies, managed to draw Prussia into their cause, and eventually Austria, Sweden and Britain. This book will appeal to those interested in Napoleonic military history, as well as to wargamers and gives a fascinating insight into the surprisingly cosmopolitan Russian army officers of that era. Although Bogdanovich had access to Russian state archives and private papers, he also makes extensive use of published German and French memoirs and histories in order to provide additional context and balance. Volume 1 covered the period from the Russian invasion of the Duchy of Warsaw up to the Armistice of June 1813. Volume 2 covers from the resumption of hostilities in August 1813 until the Coalition advance to the Rhine by December 1813, from the Battle on the Katzbach to the climactic Battle of Leipzig and on to the Battle of Hanau.
