Abstract

The battle of Eylau was the bloodiest of the Napoleonic era: around 40,000 Russian and French victims littered the battlefield. It was icy cold. Percy, in charge of the army's health service, was horrified "at the view of corpses heaped in the snow," and organized first aid for the numerous wounded.
