Summary: Arrogant and Indiscipline but Splendidly Lethal.
Comment: I'm consider myself as a big fan of the napoleonic cavalry, on his time was one of the best and if on waterloo most of it was finish by the English infantry it never loose their title as one of the best prepare and well trained of his time in Europe. One particular unit is the famous HUSSARS, this book try to explore their equipment, uniforms and weapons with the help of the great Illustrator Angus McBride.
Their famous pursuit of 1806 in Jena make then change the idea of why the light cavalry was so important, this is why Emir Bukhari describe the organization with the help of some great illustration taken from the Book of Cdt Bucquoy, La Cavalerie Legere by Pierre Benigni, all the black illustrations are from the 1st Hussars but the color plates are from almost the most important regiments, trumpeters, officers,sappers and troopers are some of the uniforms portray in this book.
Emir Bukhari describes the organization, war records, dress and equipment and the weapons.
If you are a re-enactor or just a fan of Napoleonic Uniforms this is what you are looking for also the small bibliography would help you if you want to know more.
I recommend that if you are interesting start reading the great Book by Edouard Detaille L'Armee Francaise or the great books by F. G. Hourtoulle Jena,Auerstaedt:The Triumph of the Eagle, Borondino and the Napoleonic Epic on this great book you would find more about the French Hussars, without forgeting that the author Emir Bukhari have other great books also about the french cavalry, Napoleon's Dragoons and Lancers, Cuirassiers & Carabininers,Line Chasseurs and the famous Napoleon's Guard Cavalry
