Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Ulm Campaign, 1805 A Few words of explanation are necessary to justify my production of the three studies: Leipzig, Jena, Ulm, in the inverse order of their dates. At the time I commenced the series, it appeared to me to be of the first importance to make it clear to my fellow-students that Napoleon did in fact possess during his latter years a fixed method in strategy, which he invariably followed whenever topographical conditions permitted. This method enabled him to be absolutely certain of accumulating at the decisive point of the battlefield a crushing numerical superiority, no matter what plans his opponents might have formed; for the vigour of his operations paralysed their will power and compelled them to conform to his initiative. His calculations might indeed be destroyed by tactical incidents on the battlefield, as they were, both at Leipzig and Waterloo; but the strategic object - viz. the concentration of superior numbers at the point of decision - was invariably obtained, and by the simplest possible means.
