Napoleon Absent, Coalition Ascendant

Carl von Clausewitz

Napoleon Absent, Coalition Ascendant is a translation of Volume 5 of the collected works of Carl von Clausewitz, whose historical writing underpinned On War, his seminal work on the science of war. In 1799, the Second Coalition against France fought major campaigns in Italy and Switzerland. Volume 1 focuses mainly on Italy, where the allies' tide of victories under Suvorov's dynamic leadership lapped up against the French frontier.
