Louis XIV's Army (Men-At-Arms Series, 203)

Editorial Reviews
Book Description
One of the great armies of history is now almost forgotten, yet it was in many ways the first modern army. Louis XIV strove for order and an army which was both disciplined and large. Many measures that are now standard in our present day armies were introduced during his reign. This volume is a superb introduction to this vast and fascinating subject. René Chartrand's fine text examines King Louis' formidable army, from uniforms and tactics to colours and standards and beyond.
