Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Napoleon as a General, Vol. 1
Colonel count Yoc von wartenburg of the Prussian General Staff was well known in his own country as one of the most rising men in the German Army. His untimely death in China from suffocation due to a charcoal stove in an unventilated room has deprived the service of which he was SO brilliant a member of one who was admittedly destined for a high career. The work of which this translation is Offered to the British Army shows that he was a most capable military historian, an able and penetrating critic. For training in strategy no better field can be found than the study of the campaigns of the Great Emperor. Count Yorck von Wartenburg has produced a work which in a Comparatively small space deals in a comprehensive way with them. NO such book existed in English, and I have thought it well to include it in the Wolseley Series.
