Ajouter au panierFourteenth annual edition. Official French military almanac for the year 1772, the 14th annual edition, providing a comprehensive roster of the Kingâs army on the eve of the late Ancien Rà gime. Compiled by Roussel and de Montandre, the Ãtat Militaire enumerates the officers of every regiment, corps, and branch of service, from…infantry and cavalry to engineers and the general staff. Entries are arranged by regiment, listing colonels, lieutenant-colonels, majors, captains, aides-majors, engineers, and staff officers, with notes on regimental uniforms and distinctions. The work also includes administrative divisions such as the Corps du Gà nie, military schools, garrisons, and engineers assigned to specific fortresses (Metz, Strasbourg, Toulon, Lille, etc.), making it invaluable for both genealogical research and military history. The Ãtat militaire series is indispensable for understanding the structure and personnel of the French Army immediately before the American Revolutionary War and the reforms leading up to 1789. This 1772 edition lists thousands of officers, many of whom would go on to serve in the War of American Independence and, a decade later, in the revolutionary armies. Bound in contemporary calf with gilt tooling and red-stained edges, this copy is in very good condition for its utilitarian nature. Comprehensive official register of the French Army for 1772, listing thousands of officers across all branches. An indispensable resource for scholars and collectors of Ancien Rà gime military history. Good to Very Good.
