    Dear Hans - Karl, as tomholmberg has told, you can find the full text of my paper (actually, my PhD thesis) at the link he posted above. As it's only in Italian feel free to contact me if you want some direct information (email address mickabbia@gmail.com).

    Best regards

    Michele Abbiati

    Michele,


    I look forward to very slowly reading your thesis! I believe I can copy and paste into google translate. Also my wife speaks Spanish, so she should be able to help me with some words.

    Salve Michele


    So this is the fruit of your research project :


    Michele Abiatini started a research project : At the Service of the Emperor King


    At your full thesis already the citations at the very beginning are interesting, commands in French as well as a feu de bataillon.


    Thanks for kindly offering your assistance - I might come back that offer.


    All the best

    It would be a pity there the sources already listed are quite staggering, looking into other Italian works, I am realizing that the Kingdom of Italy is quite neglected despite raising about 200,000 soldiers to fight and die for the Emperor - King

    I don't think he's done a paper directly related to the research paper, but it's possible that it's indirectly related to one or more of the other papers.

    Thanks, but also here the research paper is restricted to 18 pages, so I assume it is still in the stage of being written.
