In 1942 Lucien Rousselot published the first plate of his epic series " The French Army" . On two pages, he produced, in full color, an indisputably accurate representation of the First empire´s light cavalry uniforms with every possible detail of equipment, arms, and harnessing portrayed. In a masterfully clear and concise text, he presented the result of long years of research. Working under extreme handicaps, he continued publishing his plates. In 1960, his inexhaustible devotion was finally replayed when he was bestowed with the title of Painter for the army. This books depicts all his masterwork about Napoleons first empire in 66 plates digitally retouched updated with the original Rousselot colour pattern in a landscape format with the original texts.
