Guide Review - The French Revolutionary Wars by Gregory Fremont-Barnes
Within the covers of this tight, glossy book, the author has created an excellent range of material. The volume's introduction sets the Revolutionary Wars in a broad context, before providing a concise timeline and solid background. A mixture of narrative and discussion follows, divided into several intuitive sections, including "The fighting" and "How the war ended". Complementing the text perfectly are many glorious illustrations and full colour maps. Click below for the full review.
