Ebook: Emigre Troops in British Service: 1792-1803

Following the Revolution in 1789, members of the aristocracy were increasingly persecuted, and many of them fled abroad. These exiles became known collectively as 'Г©migrГ©s', and despite initial confusions and indecision, many of them were taken into British service. This fine text by RenГ© Chartrand examines the organisation, uniforms and insignia of the Г‰migrГ© troops in British service from 1793 to 1802, accompanied by plenty of illustrations including eight full page colour plates by Patrice Courcelle.
