Prince Eugene at War: 1809 is an in-depth military history study of the heretofore largely neglected Italian and Hungarian campaigns of Napoleon's step-son, Prince Eugene de Beauharnais, Viceroy of Italy, and commander-in-chief of the French Army of Italy. From the preparations to war through the conclusion of hostilities, Robert M. Epstein presents a lucid, factual, unbiased, and exceptionally detailed analysis of the movements and combats of the Franco-Austrian War of 1809 between Prince Eugene and his opponent, Archduke John. Included in these analyses is the interesting development of Prince Eugene as a military commander.
