Note that they intend to publish Vol II and III as well.

the first volume was pubished years ago to support the Napoleonic society in Georgia, it is a very worthwhile read – I am looking forward for volumes 2 nd 3.

Thanks for a direct link, I couldn't figure out how to do it. I plan to get it.

Next installment is available, German Liberation War of 1813, got Ebook version.

Drat! Just what I need, another title to add to my to-buy list! And I've just used up all my Christmas book vouchers, so might have to add it to my birthday list! LOL

Finished 2nd volume. Couple takeaways,
First, something I know was doctrine but don't do too often is a Russian battery were often, and in this book mostly were used in 1/2 to 1/4 at at time or broken up as tactics were needed. Many times 2 guns are used to support a Jager skirmish line. Second, been looking into the Decembrists revolt and he is amazed how well the German population is usually well off compared to Russian areas, he does compare a few places as same as in Russia but adds often its poor area either from terrain as in lack of growing or no commercial opportunities. I see how this effected some officers to come later in 1825
