The Prussian army of King Frederick II, 'the Great', became so renowned as a result of its campaigns, principally during the Seven Years' War (1756-1763), that it was regarded as a model for many of the other armies of Europe. In this first of two volumes exploring Frederick the Great's splendid army, Philip Haythornwaite examines the organization, tactics and uniforms of his cavalry troops, in a text backed by numerous illustrations including eight full page color plates by Bryan Fosten.
