Subject: Alpine Warfare in Switzerland 1799
Subject: Alpine Warfare in Switzerland 1799
Revisionist trends in history of the Napoleonic wars tend to glorify the performance of the Russian troops under General Field Marshall Suvorov and to downgrade the successful actions of the French troops in the hostile an difficult theater of war in the Swiss Alps in 1799. This prize-winning, well written and thoroughly documented account of the part of the campaign commanded by General Lecourbe (1759-1815) shows that perfect knowledge of the complicated geography and excellent intelligence and use of communication were the principal Elements that led to the redest of a great army and it's famous commander by forces much weaker in numbers.
Furthermore, Guenther's report gives a vivid impression of the deep dissensions within the population of an occupied country.
