Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)The Army of Maria Theresa is a book that is well written and well worth reading. Anyone interested in European warfare in the 18th century will enjoy this work. Christopher Duffy clearly explains the evolution of the Army under Maria Theresa to including an expose on all of the ethnic components. He explains order of battle, uniforms, grooming standards, equipment and weapons and patterns of life of the Soldiers. He also does a fine job describing the commanders and campaigns they fought under Maria Theresa. In reading about the campaigns one discovers that in her many battles against Frederick the Great her armies gave as good as they got and sent Frederick scurrying off the battlefield on more than one occasion. A great book, glad I read it.
