Wojsko polskie : Księstwo Warszawskie : 1807-1814

[Prince of Essling]

Useful book on the Army of the Duchy of Warsaw with some very nice plates of the uniforms (Markus' warning re Chelminski not being contemporary also applies here):

Wojsko polskie : Księstwo Warszawskie : 1807-1814
Gembarzewski, Bronisław (1872-1941) & Askenazy, Szymon (1866-1935). Przedmowa
Gebethner i Wolff ; G. Gebethner i Sp., Warszawa & Kraków1905

Note the volume is in DJVU format and can be downloaded at https://dbc.wroc.pl/Content/9391/download/

Thank you Ian for providing the link to this major work about the polish army - I‘ve it in original and also want to publish the colour and black/white Images in the Uniformenportal.

Das Werk von Gembarzewski ist DAS Standardwerk zur polnischen Armee, ich will die Tafeln wie auch den Chelminski in das Uniformenportal stellen … aber zunächst geht es da erst mal wieder in die zeitgenössischen Gefilde

Schöne Grüße

Fabulous work alright!
However, Polish not being a strong point, does anyone know of an English translation ever being produced? My MacBook may not forgive me trying to translate the entire volume!
I realise the mid-later era is popular, however my focus is on the development year or two, and I would like to avoid missing any details of this.

Another question for PoE- how does one use djvu format? Sorry to be such a dumbass... ‼️
Many regards, dave

Hi Dave,

For any DJVU file you will need to use a DJVU reader to view - see official site DJVu reader - official website. for a full explanation and download.

However Aide de Camp has pointed out a link to the pdf version. I am not aware of an English translation of this great work!

Regards

Ian
