On the Obscure Battles Blog, Jeff Berry has followed up his article on the Battle of Hohenlinden with an article on the famous battle earlier the same year that cemented Napoleon's hold on power, Marengo. While Marengo is not necessarily an "obscure" battle, Jeff Berry's take on it is. Another winning and very interesting article for Napoleonic fans. The link to the article is here: http://obscurebattles.blogspot.com/2020/11/marengo-1800.html
Thank you, Dave, for the glowing recommendation about my latest post on Marengo. I must admit this was a difficult one to research as there were so many conflicting accounts, both primary and secondary sources. I'm in the process of revising the maps and physical description of the battlefield based on some new input I've had from an Italian historical scholar. So stay tuned.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Jeff. I'm looking forward to the update. Your blog is always enjoyable to read.
