La campagne du duc de Guise dans l'Orléanais en octobre et novembre 1587
-
First edition. This monograph remains the definitive account of the Duke of Guise's campaign in the Orléanais region during October and November 1587. This campaign was a key Catholic military operation in the eighth War of Religion. It targeted Protestant mercenary forces, culminating in a decisive victory at the Battle of Auneau. The Duke showed himself to be an excellent tactician, winning against a much larger force. Original pale green paper covers. These are sound but slightly darkened. There is a library shelf sticker to the cover, but no other library marks. Internally clean and tidy throughout, with just a touch of darkening to the pages. Large folding map of the campaign to the rear. A scarce item, there are only three library holdings according to Worldcat (BnF, Geneva and Harvard) and no copies available online at the time of cataloguing. 28 pages. 25cm x 16cm. Conforms to WorldCat / OCLC: 456849275. .
