Author of The Art of War of Revolutionary France and many other books. "John Elting was a man of many achievements in a number of fields, both military and literary, as well as delightful social company. However, in the Napoleonic forum he will be best remembered for his extensive contributions to Bonapartist studies-- especially the wonderful atlas of 1964 (with Esposito), and then Swords Around a Throne in 1988, both of which are wonderful mines of information and of trenchant opinion. Equally of great value is his 1991 title Amateurs to Arms! (on the war of 1812); but his list of major publications is far longer than that, and in recent years he also made his mark by active participation in a number of Napoleonic periodicals. He will be sorely missed." More Elting Tribute Introduction Owen Connelly George Nafziger Paddy Griffith Maj. Kevin F. Kiley USMC Peter Hofschroer Robert Epstein Maj. Richard P.
