Emigre Troops in British Service, Vol. 1: 1793-1802

Emigre Troops in British Service, Vol. 1: 1793-1802 (Men-at-Arms Series, No. 328)

Following the Revolution in 1789, members of the aristocracy were increasingly persecuted, and many of them fled abroad. These exiles became known collectively as 'Ã©migrÃ©s', and despite initial confusions and indecision, many of them were taken into British service. This fine text by RenÃ© Chartrand examines the organisation, uniforms and insignia of the Ã‰migrÃ© troops in British service from 1793 to 1802, accompanied by plenty of illustrations including eight full page colour plates by Patrice Courcelle.
