Reseña del libro "The Military Career of General of Division Savary, Duke of Rovigo (en Inglés)"

The wars of the soldier who became Napoleon's policemanThis book, concentrating on Savary's military career has been edited with supporting contextual passages describing events in Savary's multi-volume autobiography. The young Savary first fought as a cavalryman during the Revolutionary Wars with the Army of the Rhine,distinguishing himself during Moreau's strategic retreat through Swabia. During the Egyptian Campaign, he was promoted to chef d'escadron, then aide-de-camp to General Louis Desaix, in actions fought against the Mamelukes. Upon return to Europe, Savary was present at the Battle of Marengo and, having impressed Napoleon, was appointed commander of the Gendarmes d'Élite. He was Promoted to General of Division in 1805.As Napoleon's aide-de-camp, before Austerlitz,he was sent to negotiate an armistice, though this was a ruse leading to a catastrophic enemy defeat. At Jena, Savary participated in the routing of the Prussians, forcing the surrender of the fortress of Hamelin. Taking temporary command of Lannes' V Corps, he notably fought off a counter-offensive at Ostroleka, whilst at Friedland, leading the Fusiliers of the Imperial Guard, Savary significantly mauled the Russian army. After the Treaty of Tilsit, he returned to the field during at the battles of Landshut, Eckmühl and Wagram.
