About This Item
SCHLOSS ZEIL WALDBURG-ZEIL LEUTKIRCH IM ALLGÄU GDR. Good+. 1722. On offer is a super, original 18th Century manuscript relic related to the physical art of war. Thirty hand drawn pages, many with copious, meticulous notes detailing what in 1772 would have been the state of the critical art of moving and parading masses of armed men into and during battle. Napoleon would likely have been trained to the standards or the like in this very handsome German volume. There is a rubber stamped inscription 'Archivrat Dr. R. Rauh Schloss Zeil (Wrtrag)' identifying the book as having been part of the Library of the famed residence of the Princes of Waldburg-Zeil in Leutkirch im Allgäu in southern Germany. The 7 x 5 inch book still has some of the gilt filigree over the leather and marbleized free endpapers attest to the value of this manuscript and was likely a ranking officers though we can only speculate. The binding is rubbed, some damage to the tips but the internal is very good and overall G+.; Manuscript; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall; KEYWORDS: HISTORY OF, WARFARE, WAR, GLOBAL CONFLICTS, COMBAT, COMBATANTS, MILITARY, MILITARIES, ARMIES, MILITARY PARADE, TROOP FORMATIONS, MARCHING, SQUARE BASHING, FORMATION OR MILITARY REVIEW, DRILLING, CLOSE ORDER FORMATION COMBAT, WEAPONS SALUTING, ARMED FORCES PROCEDURES, ARCHIVRAT DR.
