  • The Napoleon Series
    The Napoleon Series Officers of the Anhalt Duchies who Fought in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, 1789-1815: Anhalt, Leopold Ludwig, Count By Daniel Clarke Leopold Ludwig Count Anhalt was born on February 28, 1729, in Kleckewitz (Raguhn- Jeßnitz), in the Principality of Anhalt-Dessau. He was the second eldest son of Wilhelm Gustav, Hereditary Prince of Anhalt-Dessau and Johanne Sophie Herre. Therefore he was the brother of Albrecht (1735-1802) and Friedrich (1732-1794), and also half brother to Karl Philipp (1732-1806) and Heinrich Wilhelm (1734-1801). He married Karoline von Printzen in 1763, having one daughter, Wilhelmine Sophie Karoline. Leopold entered the service of Prussia in December 1745 during the War of Austrian Succession. He had been given the rank of Staff Captain and the position of Adjutant- General to general Leopold I, Prince of Anhalt-Dessau, who was his father’s father. On December 15 he was engaged in the Battle of Kesselsdorf, where his uncle defeated an army of Austrians and Saxons. Later, in April 1748, he became a Line Captain and commander of a company in the 3rd Infantry Regiment, Leopold Maximilian von Anhalt- Dessau. Then, during the early stages of the Seven Years’ Wars, he fought with his regiment at the Battle of Lobositz (Lovosice) in October 1756 and Prague in May 1757, where he was wounded three times. The severity of his wounds meant that Leopold only returned to active service in October 1759, but in the meantime he had been promoted to Major in February 1758. For Leopold, though, his first assignment when he returned turned out to be very unlucky.

(Quellen und Forschungen zur Brandenburgischen und Preußischen Geschichte, 50), ISBN 978-3-428-15371-8, EUR 139,90. rezensiert von | compte rendu rédigé par Adam L. Storring, Göttingen Marcus Warnke’s book integrates »new military history« – the social and economic history of war – with operational military history – the study of campaigns and battles – examining the wars of King Frederick II of Prussia (reigned 1740–1786) from the perspective of military logistics. The Seven Years War (1756–1763) saw Frederick’s Prussia faced by a huge coalition: Austria, France, Russia, Sweden and the Holy Roman Empire. Warnke reveals, however, that the Prussians benefitted from a far superior logistical system, and argues that they could therefore sometimes be described as materially superior to their numerous opponents. Indeed, he emphasizes this as the crucial difference between the Seven Years War and the later German experience in the world wars of the twentieth century. Historians have long stressed the logistical limitations on eighteenth-century warfare1. Warnke, however, deploys exhaustive research – from archives in Austria, the Czech Republic, France, Poland and across Germany – to show precisely how the Austrian and Prussian and to a lesser extent the French and Imperial armies supplied themselves during the campaign of 1757. He describes how armies drew supplies both from magazines (previously- collected stores held in fortresses, towns or cities) and from the localities where they were based (either through agreed deliveries of supplies or through »foraging« by force).

The Dutch revolted against the Spanish domination during the 1560s, leading to a protracted war of independence that led to a truce only in 1609.

The Nafziger Orders Of Battle Collection contains a compilation of 7985 individual orders of battle from 1600 to 1945. It began with George Nafziger’s interest in Napoleonic Wars, and steadily grew to other areas because of the gaming public's interest in these highly detailed historical orders of battle. Sources range from published works to actual archival documents, which represent the largest single source. Nearly all orders of battle break down to the regimental level. The availability of strength figures and artillery equipment varies from period to period. Orders of Battle are available in PDF format using this finding aid. Use the search function to locate the Order of battle by title or file name. The corresponding link will take you to the Order of Battle.

  • Historical Consciousness of German Travellers to Bohemia (1750–1850)
    Historical Consciousness of German Travellers to Bohemia (1750–1850) Martina Power KEYWORDS Historical Consciousness — Travelling — Bohemia — Habsburg Monarchy — Social History In 1823 and 1824 Weimar monthly fashion and culture magazine Journal für Litera- tur, Kunst, Luxus und Mode published a series of letters from a journey to Prague entitled Reisenotizen über Prag. Aus Briefen von Cäcilia.1 The anonymous author- ess of the travelogue was Amalie Ludecus, a step-daughter of the then popular writer Karoline Ludecus. Under the influence of her family and friends (including Karl August Böttiger, Johann Gottfried Herder, Johan Wolfgang Goethe and other members of the Weimar cultural circle) Amalie launched her literary career and became a regular contributor to the German periodicals. In her travel notes about Prague she focused on architecture, cultural and social life and described the most popular visitors’ sites. Trying to capture the local atmosphere she pointed out the extraordinary historic character of Bohemia’s capital:„Es gibt in Deutschland, ja in Europa wenig Städte, in denen jeder Stein so lebhaft geschichtliche Erinnerungen weckt, und zur Seele des Menschen ein so ernstes, mahnendes Wort spräche, als eben Prag.“2 Ludecus was not the only German author who in the first half of the nineteenth century commented on the strong presence of past in Bohemia. The visit of Bohemia evoked historical reminiscences also in other travellers. Analysing the German travel literature about Bohemia published between 1750 and 1850, present article aims to identify such geographical sites that were associated with important historical events and were part of the collective memory of German travellers.

  • The Seven Years War Operations
    The Seven Years War Operations This document lists all the scenarios included with the game, in the main game folder, their description and number of turns. The first grouping (26) is the scenarios specifically focused for play against the A/I. Sripts are in place for both sides of the A/I specific scenarios, but some scenarios are noted as best played from one side or the other. The second grouping (52) is all of the scenarios with variants and hypothetical situations included. 001.Lobositz-AI - October 1, 1756 - 54 turns The Battle of Lobositz - Faced with the prospect of Russia and Austria launching a coordinated war against him in 1757, Frederick decided to launch a war to protect his conquest of Silesia in the fall of 1756. His first move was to isolate the Saxon army at Pirna. An Austrian relief army under Browne advanced to try to rescue the besieged Saxons. Frederick moved to drive off Browne, and on the morning of October 1, he faced what he thought to be the rearguard of Browne's retreating army near Lobositz. However, Browne was not retreating and he had his army in a very strong position. While Frederick held the field at the end of the day, he was served notice that the Austrians had improved greatly since the Second Silesian War. 002.Reichenberg-AI - April 21, 1757 - 20 turns The Battle of Reichenberg - When Frederick advanced into Bohemia to start the 1757 campaign the Austrians were still trying to gather their troops. One of those isolated corps, that of Count von Koenigsegg tried to delay a force of Prussians under Bevern at Reichenberg.
