Whether he was history's greatest mercenary, or just liked to fight in wars, Nicholas Franz Bachmann is unique. He was a general in the armies of five different countries. France, Sardinia, Austria, England, and Switzerland. Prince von Kaunitz, Chancellor of Austria in the 18th century, was a man whose life was wracked with fears and suspicions.
