It is advisable to spend a few seconds choosing the right options, or you may get hundreds of irrelevant hits.
If you wish to search for a phrase, such as "battle of rivoli", type the phrase normally, but in the line below, which is marked Match, click the radio button marked "Exact phrase". If you do not, you will be presented with every occurrence of the word "of", every occurrence of "battle", and every occurrence of "rivoli": which probably means every page on the site...
Sound-alike matching may be selected by clicking the appropriate button. It is useful if you are unsure of how to spell something.
The search is carried out by Atomz, an off-site search-engine. It will accept and display most of the accents used in Western European languages, and will display a sample of the text around each occurrence of the word(s) it has found.
