"This work covers the heritage of the Ancien Régime with contributions of Vauban, Gribeauval's reforms in artillery, and Montalembert's innovations. Chapters explore the style of Napoleonic fortifications, siege warfare, artillery, and engineering corps, as well as the Napoleonic achievements in France, Italy, Germany, and the Netherlands, including projects that were realized and those that were never completed"--Provided by publisher.
