The specialist troops of the Austrian forces helped to secure Austria's reputation as the most formidable of Napoleon's continental enemies. Due largely to the efforts of Prince Liechtenstein; by the late 18th century the Austrian artillery had been the finest in Europe; and was held up as an example to the world. This text examines the famed Austrian artillery and other specialist troops of the Napoleonic Wars (1799-1815); including the Pioneers; Pontooneers; engineer services and medical service; detailing their organisation; equipment and uniforms in a volume complete with accompanying illustrations and colour plates.
