{"product_id":"9780986375712","title":"Operations Of The Armée Du Nord: 1815 - Vol. Ii: The Organization, May 9 - June 4 (French Edition)","description":"The first duty of one who wishes to faithfully write the history of a modern-day war is to obtain the orders, dispatches and reports that were sent and received throughout its duration. These documents in their entirety form what one may call the framework for the history of that war, a cornerstone upon which the author must build his work. Previous historians of the 1815 campaign seem not to have been concerned with this necessity and have for this reason produced incomplete accounts filled with falsehoods, the most serious of which was to accuse Napoleon of intentions he had never had. While it is nearly impossible to gather every last order, dispatch and report relating to the war of 1815, one may, through diligent research, acquire as great a number as possible. Heretofore, we have merely been aware of the few orders published by Marshal Grouchy based on his correspondence book and that of Marshal General Soult. Colonel Baron Stoffel, 1905The Operations of the Armée du Nord: 1815 is a reference of French military correspondence for the Waterloo campaign that serves to continue Stoffel's vision of producing a more complete record. Items from private collections and obscure archival sources fill in large gaps of the historical record, dramatically altering the conventional history.Volume 2 The Organization, May - June 4 This volume includes the key daily correspondence from the moment Soult was appointed major-général of the Armée du Nord until just prior to concentration on the frontier began.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eAuthor: \u003c\/b\u003eStephen M Beckett\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublisher: \u003c\/b\u003eMapleflower House Publishing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003ePublication Date: \u003c\/b\u003eDec 01, 2018\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eNumber of Pages: \u003c\/b\u003e506 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eLanguage: \u003c\/b\u003eFrench\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eBinding: \u003c\/b\u003eHardcover\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-10: \u003c\/b\u003e0986375713\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e| \u003cb\u003eISBN-13: \u003c\/b\u003e9780986375712\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mapleflower House Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48486488080689,"sku":"9780986375712","price":96.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0798\/8215\/8385\/products\/9780986375712.jpg?v=1710380219","url":"https:\/\/www.recomparo.com\/products\/9780986375712","provider":"ReComparo.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
