Condición: New. 2021 N&M Press reprint (of original pub) xiv + 429 pp + small maps in colour & indexPublished Price £19.99 Blücher's military career began in 1758 as a hussar in the Swedish Army. He was captured by the Prussians in 1760 during the Pomeranian Campaign and thereafter joined the Prussian Army, serving as a hussar officer for Prussia during the remainder of the Seven Years' War. In 1773, Blücher was forced to resign by Frederick the Great for insubordination. Upon the death of Frederick in 1786, Blücher was reinstated and promoted to colonel. For his success in the French Revolutionary Wars, Blücher became a major general in 1794. He became a lieutenant general in 1801 and commanded the cavalry corps during the Napoleonic Wars in 1806.â â War broke out between Prussia and France again in 1813 and Blücher returned to active service at the age of 71. He was appointed full general over the Prussian field forces and clashed with Napoleon at the Battles of Lützen and Bautzen. Later he won a critical victory over the French at the Battle of Katzbach. Blücher commanded the Prussian Army of Silesia at the Battle of the Nations where Napoleon was decisively defeated. For his role, Blücher was made a field marshal and received his title of Prince of Wahlstatt. After Napoleon's return in 1815, Blücher took command of the Prussian Army of the Lower Rhine and co-ordinated his force with that of the British and Allied forces under the Duke of Wellington. At the Battle of Ligny he was severely injured, and the Prussians retreated. After recovering, Blücher resumed command and joined Wellington.â â "Forwards!" he was quoted as saying when arriving on the field of Waterloo in the late afternoon. "I hear you say it's impossible, but it has to be done! I have given my promise to Wellington, and you surely don't want me to break it? Push yourselves, my children, and we'll have victory!" With the battle hanging in the balance, Blücher's army intervened with decisive and crushing effect, his vanguard drawing off Napoleon's badly needed reserves, and his main body being instrumental in crushing French resistance at the Battle of Waterloo, with the intervention of Blücher's army playing a decisive role in the final allied victory.

hardcover. Condición: Very Good. Bibliotheca Piscatoria: A Catalogue of Books on Angling, the Fisheries and Fish-Culture, T. Westwood & T. Satchell (with Supplement by R. B. Marston) â" Facsimile Reprint Edition Publication: London, Dawsons of Pall Mall, 1966 Formatting: 8vo, pp. xxiv, 397, [i], 24. Condition Report: Very Good. Bound in original dark cloth with silver titling to the spine, the volume remains pleasingly square and firmly bound, with the hinges tight and unyielding. The cloth boards show minimal wear to the extremities, though there is a subtle band of fading or sunning along the uppermost edge of the front board and mild rubbing to the panels. Internally, the text block is highly presentable; a faint scattering of foxing is confined strictly to the endpapers and preliminary leaves, leaving the main body of the text crisp, bright, and completely free of any marginalia or prior ownership inscriptions. A sturdy, handsome copy overall. Catalogue Note: This volume is a fine facsimile reprint of Westwood and Satchell's definitive 1883 angling bibliography, supplemented with R. B. Marston's crucial 1901 addendum. By combining these core texts into a single, comprehensive reference, this edition provides an uninterrupted catalogue of early fishing literature. Though unillustrated, the work serves as an indispensable reference tool for serious collectors, dealers, and researchers of antiquarian sporting books. While the 1883 first edition commands a significant premium, this 1966 Dawsons reprint is relatively uncommon on the open market and remains highly sought after for its scholarly utility and durable academic binding. Blurb: Recognised as the foundational bibliography for the sporting collector, Bibliotheca Piscatoria offers a meticulously researched catalogue of books relating to angling, fisheries, and fish-culture. Originally compiled by Thomas Westwood and Thomas Satchell in 1883, the work goes far beyond a simple list, enriching its entries with engaging bibliographical notes and an appendix of citations from classic English authors. This combined facsimile edition, complete with R. B. Marstonâs 1901 supplement, provides an exhaustive overview of early piscatorial writings, cementing its place as an essential cornerstone in the library of any field sports enthusiast.
