The chasseurs, being the indigenous French light horse, can perhaps therefore be equated best with the infantry demi-brigades of this period.
A half-trained, unprofessional, make-shift collection, they made up with zeal what they lacked in experience, a qualification which in no way diminished the importance of their role within Napoleon's all-conquering army.
Emir Bukhari's fine text examines the dress and equipment of Napoleon's line chasseurs, plus the histories of individual regiments in a volume containing a plethora of illustrations and diagrams including eight full page colour plates by popular artist Angus McBride, showing a variety of uniforms in admirable detail.
