Hulot traines at the Chalons artillery school in 1794 and served throughout the French revolutionary wars. He was wounded at Saragoss and promoted chef de bataillon in 1809. He was made a baron by Louis XVIII and became inspector general of infantry in 1819. (For other books on the Napoleonic Wars please search my stock using the keyword napoleonic.)
