This book draws on original regimental records to give by far the most detailed account ever published in English of the organization and personalities of the most renowned of the foreign units that served in the Emperor's armies. Unlike most of his foreign troops, these Polish horsemen were true volunteers, who owed their honoured place in his Imperial Guard to their proven courage and dash on battlefields from Spain to Russia. The text is illustrated with rare portraits and photographs, and with detailed colour plates of the Lancers' magnificent uniforms.

Author Ronald Pawley spins a superb tale that gives the reader the feeling that he is participating in the events of the time. Accompanied by a superb selection of artifact photos and illustrations of the time, this is an excellent book on the subject and one that I know you will enjoy reading.
