Sobre este artículo
Imprime a Berlin: se vend a Potsdam: aux depends de l'Auteur chez J.F. Unger, 1785. First edition in French. Rebound in 3/4 leather and marbled boards, gilt rules and gilt stamped black morocco spine label. 27cm. 104 pp. Extra illustrated title page, large hand-colored map, and 26 hand-colored battle plans mounted on plates. Previous owner's bookplate on front pastedown. A very good copy. A chronology of the campaigns of Frederick the Great during the battles in Silesia and the Seven Years' War appears in printed margin notes. Errata on page 104.
The original edition in German, also issued in 1785, under the title "Kurzgefasste Beschreibung der drei Schlesischen Kriege zur Erklarung einter Kupfertafel auf Welcher, sechs und zwanzig Schlachten und Hauptgefechte abgebildet sind," was accompanied by a large folding plate at the rear which included all the various battle plans mentioned. For the French language edition, this plate was carefully trimmed and separated into the individual plans which were then laid down on plates and interspersed within the text. The extra-illustrated title page was created from the title of the plate. Other copies we have examined show slight variations in the way the plates were trimmed, so each copy must have been created by hand. OCLC lists 5 copies of this edition in the U.S.: Stanford, Soc. of the Cincinnati, Boston Athenaeum, U.S. Army War College, & Newberry.
