Excerpt from The Seven Weeks War, Vol. 2 of 2: Its Antecedents and Its IncidentsThe Hanoverian army had marched from its capital almost totally unprepared to undertake a campaign. It stood in dire need of several days' rest in order to be organized, and to allow time for the formation Of a transport train, as well as for the clothing and arma ment of the soldiers of reserve who had been recalled to the ranks, and for the horsing of part of the artillery. On this account it was forced to halt until the 20th June at Go'ttingen, and the favourable moment for its un molested march to unite with the troops of Bavaria was allowed to slip away.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
