Dès le début, la Suisse a mis en place un véritable commerce de mercenaires. Par des capitulations, chaque canton pouvait recruter des unités militaires au nom d'un État voisin avec ses propres officiers et règles. La Révolution française a rencontré la loyauté des Suisses au service du roi de France. Le célèbre massacre de la Garde suisse le 10 août 1792 aux Tuileries fut le plus sanglant. Après cela, les régiments suisses de l'infanterie de ligne furent dissous. La France, réorganisant l'Europe entre 1793 et 1813, a transformé la Suisse qui fournissait, non toujours dans les meilleures conditions, son voisin en troupes de grande valeur pour la Révolution et pour l'Empire. Ce livre traite des troupes suisses qui ont servi la Monarchie, la République, le Consulat, l'Empire et le Second Empire.

On 14 June 1800, during the second Italian campaign, Napoleon narrowly won the battle of Marengo (Piedmont). This famous battle put 28,000 French soldiers against 31,000 Austrian soldiers under the command of General Melas. At first dominated, the French had to retreat nearly seven miles back.

This book traces the glorious history of the elite French cavalry.

After the defeat in 1940, the Vichy Government started reforming the army which the occupier had been good enough to let it keep. At the same time in England, General de Gaulle got down to setting up a unit for all the volunteers drifting in from all over the Empire.

Napoleon had failed to tame the Russian Bear and winter made that dream impossible. The Grande Armee was retreating under constant attack from the Cossacks. The Berezina was the last obstacle that had to be crossed.Discover how this terrible episode was a true victory for French military genius.

This is the fourteenth work in the Officers and Soldiers collection and is given over to the French Cuirassiers from the Consulate to the Second Restoration. Dating back to the Heavy Cavalry of the Ancien Regime, the first Cuirassier regiments were really created in France in 1801 during the Consulate.

The guide and guard units, formed out of the necessities of war and in close contact with the general staff (as escorts, guards and messengers) quickly became an object of attention for the generals, as they were emblematic of the military prestige of their leaders and represented a veritable praetorian guard. The highest in perfection were those surrounding Bonaparte, with Bessières at the head, one of the core components of the future Imperial Guard. The guards would be present in almost all the armies of the Republic, from the Consulat and the Empire, and yet today they are for the most part completely forgotten. They served some of the most prestigious leaders, the Emperor being at the top. Anywhere the Republic, and then the Empire, would stake their tricolor flags, the guards would be there. Volume Six in the Officers and Soldiers series strives to reconcile the injustice inflicted upon these elite soldiers. ILLUSTRATIONS: Illustrated throughout

Montmirail, Champaubert, Reims, Laon, Craonne, Montereau, Paris—each of these names is synonymous of tumultuous victories and heroic fighting.
