Oblong quarto. (9)ff. Eight movable illustrations show the daily activities of encamped soldiers, from their serious endeavors at parade and in the care of their horses, to the more playful and even humorous moments of gymnastics, padded bayonet combat practice, and a chess game suddenly interrupted by a fellow officer. An astonishingly fine copy with illustrated title label to upper board and red cloth backing, preserved in its original box. Rare thus. (Wegehaupt III, 2357).
