Austrian manual of arms for the Seven Years War period
One of my mates from the States is looking for the drill manual for the Austrian army - these are a few of the plates sent by my pal Boris - anyone have the whole work?
If its useful they are illustrations from "Regulament und Ordnung des gesammten Kaiserlich-Koniglichen Fuss Volks 1749", Seems to have been reprinted in Germany in 1969; http://www.antikmakler.de/catalog/-p-11058.html
A rare, as informative as inspirational, set of illustrations: thanks!
ReplyDeleteExcellent, Ralphus ! Hadn't seen those plates before.
