The mounted troops of the Hapsburg Empire comprised one of the most powerful forces of the Napoleonic Wars (1799-1815). However, from the outset the cavalry's higher command was less capable than its infantry counterpart: appointments were influenced by nepotism and politics, which resulted in commands often being given to those who lacked experience. The cavalry underwent many re-organisations and expansions in the course of the wars that attempted to redress these matters, and to modernise the force as a whole. This title examines these processes and documents in detail the tactics, uniforms and equipment of the Austrian cavalry, covering Cuirassiers, Dragoons, Chevauxlegers, Hussars, Uhlan (lancer) and auxiliary units.Austrian Army of the Napoleonic Wars (2): CavalryPhilip Haythornthwaite (Author), Bryan Fosten (Illustrator)Published Nov 27 1986Format PaperbackEdition 1stExtent 50ISBN 9780850457261Imprint Osprey PublishingIllustrations 50 b/w; 8 colDimensions 10 x 7 inchesSeries Men-at-ArmsShort code MAA 181Publisher Bloomsbury Publishing
