Description: This book offers a fascinating look at the Prussian army in the 19th century, providing a detailed analysis of its organization and development. The author, a Prussian Dragoon Guard, draws upon his personal experience to explain the evolution of the army from its disastrous defeat at Jena in 1806 to its emergence as a formidable force in the aftermath of the Franco-Prussian War. He explores the key principles of the Prussian system, including its emphasis on compulsory education and military service, which created a disciplined and highly trained fighting force. The book delves into the mechanics of recruiting, training, and supplying the army, including the complex system of reserves and the vital role of horses in warfare. Through detailed descriptions of the army's structure, the author reveals the systematic approach to its organization, which allowed Prussia to mobilize a powerful fighting force with remarkable efficiency. The insights contained within this book offer a unique and valuable understanding of the Prussian army and its influence on European military history.
