MARENGO AND HOHENLINDEN by James R Arnold Signed by author on title page. Some highlighting in bibliography. Plastic covered dustjacket. In the autumn of 1799, Napoleon Bonaparte organized a coup and made himself dictator of France, but he knew that France would accept his rule only if he gained military victories that brought peace. The author describes the extraordinary campaigns that followed. At Marengo Bonaparte defeated the Austrians and his fellow General Jean Moreau beat the combined Austrian and Bavarian armies at Hohenlinden. These twin campaigns proved decisive. Bonaparte's dictatorship was secure and his enemies across Europe were forced into a 15-year struggle to overthrow him.1999, Arnold , , 0967098505,< B-01>,301pp maps, illustrations, , , Subject...
