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.

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.
