Colours, Standards and Guidons of Austria, Britain, Prussia and Russia
An illustrated survey of the military Colours of France's enemies during the Napoleonic Wars. Included here are the flags of Imperial Russia, Hapsburg Austria, Britain and Prussia.
From the Liebfahne and Ordinärfahne of Austria, to the eagle and wreath of Russia, the flags of the Napoleonic Wars comprised a range of designs and colours. The second in a series of three volumes focusing on flags of the Napoleonic Wars, this book examines the patterns, colours and guidons of Austria, Britain, Prussia and Russia, offering a rare glimpse into an often-overlooked subject in Napoleonic history. The text is packed with illustrations throughout, including colour plates, sketches and tables detailing flag variants, patterns and inspection colours.
