Synopsis
During the last decade of the 17th century, a coalition of the Netherlands, England, the Holy Roman Empire, Spain and Savoy joined together in a 'Grand Alliance' to resist the aggressive ambitions of Louis XIV's France. The initial years of 'The Nine Years' War' coincided with the 'Glorious Revolution' in England which expelled Louis XIV's ally, James II and also saw the first widespread use of uniform clothing and flintlock muskets in battle. Drawing upon detailed illustrations of the weapons and uniforms of the armies of the Grand Alliance, this fascinating account examines a conflict which foreshadowed the 'world wars' of the 18th century. Book jacket., This title explores and illustrates the armies of France, and six countries allied against Louis XIV, in a wide-ranging Continental conflict that ushered in more than a century of European warfare. Formed in 1689, the 'Grand Alliance' or League of Augsburg was a military coalition of the Holy Roman Empire, the Dutch Republic, Britain, Spain and the Duchy of Savoy, to resist Louis XIV's rich, powerful and expansionist France. The first stage of the nine year conflict that followed also coincided with the so-called 'Glorious Revolution' in Britain (1688 - 91), when the throne passed to the Dutch Protestant leader, William of Orange, the head of a multi-national Dutch, Danish and English army, which finally expelled James II's Jacobite and French forces from Ireland. The long war on the continent was notable for the first widespread use of regimental uniforms and flintlock muskets with bayonets, plus the sophisticated use of siege warfare under the great French engineer, Vauban. The final Treaties of Ryswyck (1697) brought the war to an end and marked Louis XIV's political zenith, and also the ascendancy of both the Dutch and British as first-rate global powers. This fully illustrated title explores the armies which fought the War of the Grand Alliance, examining their strength, organization, uniforms and weapons, and explaining their campaigns and major battles., This title explores and illustrates the armies of France, and six countries allied against Louis XIV, in a wide-ranging Continental conflict that ushered in more than a century of European warfare.

Imagine my delight to find out that the author had done much of her research at the Northern Arizona Museum, in Flagstaff, Arizona. We frequently go to Flagstaff, and never miss a trip to this fabulous museum. They have one of the best gift shops for authentic Native crafts, and the museum itself isn't to be missed. Haven't had a chance to delve into this beautiful book yet, but can hardly wait.
