Summary "A Detailed Account of the Battle of Austerlitz" by Karl von Stutterheim is a historical account written in the early 19th century. The book provides an official Austrian perspective on the pivotal battle fought on December 2, 1805, which significantly impacted the outcomes of European geopolitics at the time. It likely explores the military strategies, formations, and the broader consequences of the battle, aiming to deliver an impartial and detailed narrative of the events. At the start of the work, the author outlines the background and significance of the Battle of Austerlitz, emphasizing its disastrous consequences for the allied forces and the shifting power dynamics in Europe. The introduction discusses the flawed military strategies employed by the Austro-Russian coalition and sets the stage for a detailed recounting of the events leading up to and during the battle. Stutterheim aims to present a candid observation of what transpired, stripping away military glorification to reveal the harsh realities of war, while also indicating the reasons behind the coalition's failure against Napoleon's forces. The text promises to deliver an account based on first-hand observations and research, intending to serve as a resource for future military leaders and historians alike.
