Appartiene alle SerieOsprey Campaign (91)
Osprey's examination of the highly devastating battle of the Seven Years' War (1756-1763). In May of 1757 Frederick the Great invaded Bohemia, smashed an Austrian army outside Prague and bottled it up in the city. The Empress Maria Theresa despatched Marshal Daun with 60,000 men to save the Empire's second city. Frederick had won a string of victories over the Austrians and was convinced his men would always triumph. Although outnumbered he attacked, but the Austrians were waiting. Hisarmy was defeated and forced to withdraw. As his veterans commented, 'they were not the same old Austrians at all'. Simon Millar shows how Frederick's overconfidence proved his undoing at Kolin.

Vláda pruského krále Fridricha Velikého (1740-1786) se vyznačovala výbojnou politikou a sérií válek, které byly zaměřeny na získání území dosud ovládaných habsburskou říší, resp. v té době Marií Terezií. Výsledkem četných vojenských akcí bylo nakonec trvalé získání většiny Slezska ve prospěch Pruska. Ne vždy však byl Fridrich úspěšný. Během sedmileté války nad ním zvítězila rakouská armáda u Kolína a uvolnila tak Prahu z pruského obležení. Jak a proč se tak stalo, kdo se o to zasloužil, jak bitva probíhala a jaké byly její důsledky, to vše se dozvíte z této publikace, vybavené spoustou ilustrací, fotografií a map.
