Among all the fundamental military-historical works devoted to the military history of Russia that brought A. I. Mikhailovsky-Danilevsky lifetime fame, "History of the Wars of 1805, 1806 and 1807", which has not been republished since 1844, still remains one of the important sources for researchers of the Napoleonic Wars. It outlines the causes of the war, armament and deployment of armies, foreign policy steps of Emperor Alexander, and the destruction of the Austrian army at Ulm, Kutuzov's retreat from the Bavarian border to Moravia, the first battles with Napoleon, the Allied offensive, the Battle of Austerlitz and its consequences. As a participant in the campaigns of the Russian army and one of the most informed persons of his time, the author examines in detail the peripetias of the campaign of 1806 and 1807, the reasons for the failure of the Allies and French victories. The study is based on authentic military and diplomatic documents, and, most valuable of all, on the testimonies of the few surviving participants in the war of 1805.
