The turmoil of the French Revolution left no stone unturned. Everything was in a state of flux, in flux, newly created and some things were immediately destroyed again. This was also true of the structures and the aspirations of the French army. A performance principle was born here that had previously been almost unimaginable. It is not easy to outline the years leading up to the Grande Armée's overpowering position in Europe. This book presents the people, events and memories of soldiers who later went from success to success in Napoleon's army and ultimately failed.
