Eggmühl 1809
Author: Ian Castle
Publisher: Greenwood
ISBN: 9780275986247
Category : Eggmühl, Battle of, Eggmühl, Germany, 1809
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In the spring of 1809, the Austrian army, buoyant and full of new-found patriotic fervor, rolled across the frontier with Bavaria. The time had come to exact revenge for the humiliating defeat suffered at Austerlitz. Napoleon was not in the front line when Austria had launched its campaign - and the French and their German allies blundered backwards and forwards across the Bavarian countryside. But, with the appearance of Napoleon, Archduke Charles lost the initiative, and ten days later, harassed by ceaseless rain, the Austrians were streaming back from the Abens river with Napoleon in hot pursuit. This volume covers the various clashes of this significant campaign, drawing upon previously unpublished Austrian primary sources.

The Battle of Lechfeld and Its Aftermath, August 955
Author: Charles R. Bowlus
Publisher: Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.
ISBN: 9780754654704
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
In August 955 the forces of Otto the Great annihilated a huge army of Hungarian mounted archers in an encounter known as the battle of Lechfeld. This book provides the first satisfactory explanation for the decisive nature of Otto's victory which effectively ended the incursions of steppe nomads into Western Europe. A detailed reconstruction of the battle is preceded by chapters analyzing 10th-century Germany and the strengths of nomadic styles of warfare. A pioneering aspect is the consideration of environmental factors, not only the limits they imposed on the expansion of the nomadic way of life into Europe, but also the impact the local environment had on the outcome of the battle.
