Roldanus, W. N.
De approviandeering der ontworpen Stelling van Amsterdam.
Two parts in one volume. Paginated consecutively. Crown quarto. Pp. (ii), 22; (ii), 25-108. Plus 2 sketch maps, one of which is folding. Several tables. Original wrappers, bit worn and shabby, shelf tickets and old institutional stamp. In a very good internal condition, entirely still unopened. ~ First edition. Extremely rare.

The three contributors shared the price of fl. 500 but only Roldanus' work was found suitable for publication. In his work he goes into great detail as to the necessary provisions required both in time of peace and at war. In the supplementary tables he even provides a census of neighbouring municipalities, villages and hamlets that form the Defence Line of Amsterdam and specifies how many kilograms of meat, potatoes, peas, beans, rice, sugar, coffee, salt, paper, etc. etc. would be necessary to support these populations.

(Stieltjes, T. J.).
Denkbeelden van een' oud' soldaat over eene zuiniger en doelmatiger zamenstelling van het Nederlandsche leger.
Royal octavo. Pp. 110, (1) Errata. Plus 5 tables numbered I-IV, printed on 3 large folding sheets at end. Bound in the original plain paper covered boards, corner creased, shelf tickets and ends enforcement, old institutional stamps to title-page. An untrimmed copy entirely in the original state in a very good condition. ~ First edition. Extremely rare. The annonymous veteran is T. J. Stieltjes (1819-1878). His controversial book created a rather tempered chain reaction, first with the publication of "Bedenkingen van een' jong' soldaat, tegen eenige der denkbeelden van een' oud' soldaat (.)" Amersfoort, 1843). When also the pamphlet "Vlugtige bedenkingen tegen de denkbeelden van een oud soldaat (.)" appeared shortly thereafter, Stieltjes was quick to respond and his publisher issued in haste the publication "Nadere ontwikkeling (.)" (Nijmegen 1843). A few years later Stieltjes wrote in length his "Is Nederland nog te verdedigen? Toestemmend beantwoord door den schrijver der denkbeelden van een oud - soldaat (.)" (Nijmegen, 1849), to be followed by "'Hoe Nederland te verdedigen is. In ruwe trekken aangeduid, door een Oud-Soldaat" (Nijmegen, 1853). See also: W. J. Knoop in "De Gids", 14th year, 1949-50.
