The History of the Schaumburg-Lippe-Bückeburg Carabinier and Jäger Corps

A history of one of the most unique and innovative military units of the Seven Years War.

The Schaumburg-Lippe-Bückeburg Carbiner and Jäger Corps was one of the unique and colorful units that fought in the Seven Years War. Raised in the small German state of Schaumburg-Lippe-Bückeburg, and led by its hereditary ruler, this cavalry and infantry unit specialized in harassing and screening the enemy. This history was originally published in German in 1828 by G.W. Düring. It has been translated and added to by Prof. James McIntyre, creating this fascinating combat unit's first and most complete history.
