Requirements: .PDF reader, 70 mb
Overview: A definitive guide to the dress, weapons and accruements of the the 17 regiments of hussars and the 32 regiments of chasseurs à cheval.
Small men, with big egos and mustaches, the hussars of Napoleonâs army wore some of the most flamboyant and stylish uniforms of the epoch. The uniforms of the seventeen regiments of hussars are discussed in detail, along with the dress of their brethren in the thirty-two regiments of chasseurs à cheval, with an emphasis on highly elaborate dress of the trumpeters. Archive documents which have never been previously used to study the subject will be used for the first time: many of these documents have not been published in French and have never appeared as translations. Illustrated with contemporary illustrations, original items of uniform and reconstructions of uniforms, this is the definitive guide to the dress of the Napoleonâs light cavalry.
