1.0 out of 5 stars
Boring trivia,
By kennedy john FORESMAN (Paris, France.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: MILITARY LIFE UNDER NAPOLEON: The Memoirs of Captain Elze'ar Blaze (Hardcover)
I am a collector of memoirs of the French Revolution and 1st Empire and hope to use them to rewrite and complement the regimental histories that already exist. Unfortunately, many of these memoirs are vague and picturesque, but none of them are as rambling, disjointed and peppered with idiotic and inconsequential dialogues as this one. Blaze's banter and anecdotes often refer to periods prior to 1789. In all of Blaze's book there is only one interesting uniform detail: Captains and higher grades of the Young Guard flanker regiments wore their former blue Old Guard uniforms while the lower grades wore green.
