More about the book

A military history of France through one hundred exceptional objects displayed at the Army Museum. This guide dedicated to the Army Museum of the Invalides presents and comments on the one hundred most beautiful objects of this rich and little-known museum, which is visited by over a million people each year. Thus, from the sword of an anonymous knight from the 13th century, or Napoleon's sword at Austerlitz, to the cannon of Bir-Hakeim, from the turban of Sultan Bajazet to Leclerc's kepi, not to mention sabers, rifles, and flags, it is less the history of the army that unfolds than the history of France and Europe in 100 objects.
