I guess I better subscribe to Military History!! One question, the author makes out that it was "the first total war...The armies tended to avoid large-scale battle" Please can you expand on this? as surely in the past other large scale battles were fought? Was therefore the Napoleonic era the beginning of large scale battles? What an excellent well written article. I guess I better subscribe to Military History!!
