Description: THE TACTICS AND STRATEGY OF THE GREAT DUKE OF MARLBOROUGH HILAIRE BELLOC ARROWSMITH: LONDON 1933 First edition. PREFACE. THIS book does not attempt a full survey of Marlborough's military career, and the many problems raised by his actions and their preliminaries. It only professes to be a study made with the object of rendering as simply as possible the main lines of a certain selected number of his more important operations. For this purpose six operations have been selected : the campaign and Battle of Blenheim (1704); the forcing of the lines of Brabant (1705); the Battle of Ramillies (1706); the Battle of Oudenarde (1708) ; the Battle of Malplaquet (1710) ; the forcing of the lines of Flanders and Artois (1711). 22 x 14 cm. xiv + 240 pp + 3 plates. Map endpapers. Very good condition. From the library of St. Aloysius Convent, with their stamp on the front free endpaper and a shelf number on the spine but the nuns don’t appear to have been keen students of military history and the rest of the book is clean and tidy. Cloth slightly worn on the corners and ends of the spine. Pictures sell! Auctiva offers Free Image Hosting and Editing. The complete eBay Selling Solution.
