2.0 out of 5 stars
Poor illustrations hurt otherwise decent entry in series,
By robbieandrose (New England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Russian Grenadiers and Infantry 1799-1815 (Warrior) (Paperback)
While the author Laurence Spring has done a respectible job portraying what it was like to be a common soldier in the Czar's army during the Napoleonic period the illustrator Younghusband has seen fit to pull down the volume with uninteresting, completely generic illustrations that more properly belong in an edition of the men at arms series. The author acknowleges the fact that only a few accounts of Russian soldiers who served during that period survive however I felt more could have been done to give the reader a better understanding of what infantry fighting was like for the Russians.
