However, from the outset the cavalrys higher command was less capable than its infantry counterpart: appointments were influenced by nepotism and politics, which resulted in commands often being given to those who lacked experience. The cavalry underwent many re-organisations and expansions in the course of the wars that attempted to redress these matters, and to modernise the force as a whole. This title examines these processes and documents in detail the tactics, uniforms and equipment of the Austrian cavalry, covering Cuirassiers, Dragoons, Chevauxlegers, Hussars, Uhlan (lancer) and auxiliary units.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Osprey Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44983900700725,"sku":"ByrdShop_0850457262","price":33.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780850457261_af48b8ba-5634-48cc-849b-02223a2825ee.jpg?v=1778667579","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/austrian-army-of-the-napoleonic-wars-2-cavalry-men-at-arms-series-181-9780850457261","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
