Book Synopsis Napoleon’s Polish Lancers of the Imperial Guard by : Ronald Pawly
Download or read book Napoleon’s Polish Lancers of the Imperial Guard written by Ronald Pawly and published by Osprey Publishing. This book was released on 2007-08-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Napoleon's Polish Lancers of the Guard were unique in their appearance and in their loyalty. This book reveals their varied and colorful uniforms as well as their long and loyal service for the Bonaparte cause during the Napoleonic Wars (1799-1815). The Poles were the only foreign contingent never to defect from Napoleon's cause, staying faithful to the end - a squadron even accompanied Napoleon into exile on Elba, and the Guard reformed in 1815 to charge at Waterloo. In 1808, when Napoleon was smashing his way through the Spanish armies to get at British forces in the Peninsular, the Poles astounded observers with their extreme acts of courage and military daring. In one memorable instance the Poles captured a defended mountain pass at Somosierra, overrunning four batteries of cannons in the process. It was they who introduced the use of the lance to the French army, adding a new tactical dimension to the use of the cavalry on the battlefield and demonstrated its deadly effects in all of Napoleon's most famous victories - particularly Wagram in 1809. Brave and ruthless in equal measures, this is a fascinating insight into the fighting lives of the legendary Polish Lancers.
Book Synopsis Napoleon's Red Lancers by : Ronald Pawly
Download or read book Napoleon's Red Lancers written by Ronald Pawly and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-03-20 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The legendary Dutch 'Red' Lancers – the 2nd Light Horse Lancers of Napoleon's Imperial Guard – were formed in 1810 after the emperor annexed Holland and its army to France. The former hussars of the Dutch Royal Guard got a handsome new uniform, a new weapon, and a hard-driving new colonel in Baron Edouard Colbert. His lancers distinguished themselves in Russia in 1812, at huge cost; in Germany in 1813, and in the Low Countries in 1814. When Napoleon returned from exile in 1815 the Red Lancers were with him until night fell over Waterloo. Ronald Pawly is the world's leading expert on the archival and pictorial record left by this regiment; his detailed text is illustrated with rare portraits and photographs, and eight glowing colour plates of a surprisingly wide variety of uniforms.

Download or read book Jodhpur Lancers written by Michael Creese and published by . This book was released on 2019-09 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of the magnificent Jodhpur Lancers - one of India's most charismatic cavalry regiments - even as centenary celebrations begin of their finest hour, their extraordinary victory at the Battle of Haifa (now in Israel) in 1918. Indeed, the charge, mounted on horses against machine gun fire, at the fortified city then held by German and Turkish forces, is described by many as 'perhaps the greatest cavalry charge ever on a regimental scale', ranking alongside Cromwell's Ironsides at Marston Moor, the Polish Lancers at Somosierra and the German cavalry at Mars-la-Tour. No wonder the Jodhpur Lancers were referred to as the Jo Hokums ('As You Command') by the end of the Great War - no challenge was insurmountable, no order ever refused. Laced with anecdotes and 'inside stories', Michael Creese traces the roots of the regiment from its raising by the legendary Sir Pratap Singh to its early actions in China. From the muddy trenches of France, to Haifa, Aleppo and Damascus; to its eventual mechanisation in the Second World War. Finally, and sadly, to its bureaucratic amalgamation with the Indian Army in the 1950s, where, against many odds, it has been able to retain a slice of its identity and history; the battle cry always 'Ran Banka Rathore' ('The Rathore - Invincible in Battle').
Book Synopsis A Lancer for the Emperor The Recollections of a Polish Officer During the Napoleonic Wars by : Désiré Chlapowski
Download or read book A Lancer for the Emperor The Recollections of a Polish Officer During the Napoleonic Wars written by Désiré Chlapowski and published by Leonaur Limited. This book was released on 2023-06-19 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adventures of an Aide to the Emperor and officer of Polish Lancers The author of this riveting first-hand account of the Napoleonic Wars was, in the first years of the 19th century, a young Polish nobleman and a cadet serving in the Prussian dragoons. His first passion, however, was the independence and return to sovereignty of his nation. A chance encounter in 1806, during which he impressed the Emperor Napoleon, launched him into a martial career which he believed would enable him fulfil his part in that liberation. As an officer of voltigeurs with the 9th regiment of Polish infantry he fought and was captured by the Russians before Danzig in 1807. Upon his release he became an orderly officer to the French emperor, serving in Spain and during the campaign and battles that led to the Battle of Wagram in 1808. In recognition of his service, Chlapowski was promoted to squadron leader of the 1st Light Horse Lancers (Polish) of the Imperial Guard in 1811 and in that capacity he served in the disastrous invasion of Russia and during the subsequent retreat from Moscow. The Saxon Campaign of 1813 saw Chlapowski in action again at Bautzen and Hanau, but he resigned his commission when he inadvertently discovered that the hard- pressed Napoleon proposed to betray Poland to secure advantageous peace terms. This edition of Chlapowski's memoir has been newly translated from a later French text and includes interesting annotations introduced from that period together with further observations by the editor. This edition has been rearranged into accessible chapters for reader convenience and accessibility. Leonaur editions are newly typeset and are not facsimiles; each title is available in softcover and hardback with dustjacket.

Book Synopsis Napoleon’s Scouts of the Imperial Guard by : Ronald Pawly
Download or read book Napoleon’s Scouts of the Imperial Guard written by Ronald Pawly and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-02-20 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Driven out of Germany after his defeat at Leipzig in 1813, Napoleon seemed to face disaster. Some 345,000 Allied troops were converging on France from the east; and Napoleon had only about 80,000 men. Most of his veterans had been killed in Russia and Germany, and he was short of cavalry to counter the swarms of Cossacks. For his last and possibly most brilliant campaign, Napoleon raised three regiments of mounted Scouts for his Imperial Guard. Through the story of these units the reader can follow Napoleon's dazzling manoeuvres in the campaign of 1814; and their widely varied uniforms are reconstructed in meticulously researched colour plates.
