Ebook: Napoleon's Invasion of Russia

Presidio, Novato, California - 1988. 657 pgs., PDF, 197Mb. This is an impressive and serious study of one of the most fascinating military campaigns in history. September 7, 1812, by itself has been termed one of the most cataclysmic days in the history of war: 74,000 casualties from both sides at the Battle of Borodino. Historians, to be sure, have covered the ground, have followed the ill-fated path of the Grand Armée's central army group, but questions still-and perhaps always-will remain. Interpretations vary. Many appendices and orders of battle. Maps. Discussion of tactical organization.
