Depot General de la Guerre
De la Nature des differents Pays situés sur la Rive droite du Rhin de Bâle à Coblentz. Ponts Camp. etc.
France late 18th century. Manuscript on paper. Text in French written in a neat hand. Sewn. Occasional spotting. Overall in fine condition. Manuscript on paper. Text in French written in a neat hand. Sewn. ff. 46 last blank. <p><br /> An important 18th-century manuscript from the Dépôt de la Guerre providing a strategic analysis of the right bank of the Upper and Middle Rhine used for military reconnaissance and planning.<br /> <p><p><br /> This manuscript produced by the Dépôt Général de la Guerre presents a detailed strategic analysis of the right bank of the Rhine from Basel to Koblenz. The Dépôt de la Guerre established in 1688 was the principal institution responsible for French military intelligence cartography and strategic planning. It played a crucial role in gathering and disseminating geographic and strategic data to support military operations. This manuscript is a testament to that work offering valuable insights into potential military routes positions and logistical considerations along the Upper and Middle Rhine—a region of significant strategic importance.<br /> <p><p><br /> The manuscript is divided into four sections each providing specific strategic information.<br /> <p><p><br /> De la Nature des differents Pays situés sur la Rive droite du Rhin de Bâle à Coblentz: The main section offers a comprehensive overview of the nature and strategic value of regions on the right bank of the Rhine from Basel to Koblenz. It discusses the terrain routes suitable for army movements locations favorable for establishing camps and available agricultural resources. Regions such as Baden the Palatinate Worms Mainz Württemberg and others are examined from a military perspective.<br /> <p><p><br /> Positions militaires sur la Rive droit du Rhin de Bale à Coblentz: This section focuses on analyzing potential military positions along the right bank of the Rhine identifying defensible locations natural barriers and strategic points for effectively deploying troops and artillery.<br /> <p><p><br /> Indication des principaux lieux où il seroit possible à l’ennemi de Jetter des Ponts sur la Rive droite du Rhin de Bâle à Coblentz: Identifies key locations along the right bank where an enemy might construct bridges to cross the Rhine highlighting strategic points that could be critical for defense or control to prevent such crossings.<br /> <p><p><br /> Indications des différens lieux entre Bale et Philisbourg où l'on pourrait Jetter des Ponts sur la Rive Gauche du Rhin pour se porter dans les Pays situés sur sa Rive Droite: Discusses potential sites between Basel and Philippsburg on the left bank of the Rhine where bridges could be established to launch operations onto the right bank. This section is essential for planning offensive maneuvers or controlling river crossings.<br /> <p><p><br /> To the best of our knowledge this manuscript was never published in print and was presumably circulated only in a few copies this one bears the inscription “1er†on the first leaf making it a rare and significant example of 18th-century military reconnaissance and planning. Comparable manuscripts are found in the archives of the Service Historique de la Défense such as the Exposé sommaire de la nature des différents pays situés sur la rive droite du Rhin de Bâle à Coblenz entre les montagnes Noires et le Rhin which includes additional reconnaissance reports from 1730 and 1743 1 M 1504. Similarly another version of the Exposé sommaire appears in Louis Tuetey's Catalogue général des manuscrits des bibliothèques publiques de France: Archives de la guerre no. 1941 underscoring the careful documentation and strategic importance of the Rhine region by the Dépôt de la Guerre.<br /> <p><p><br /> Koblenz located at the confluence of the Rhine and Moselle rivers was a critical strategic point during this period. It was occupied by French forces from 1794 to 1814 serving as a key administrative and logistical hub during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars. The kind of intelligence contained in this manuscript would have been invaluable for controlling the Middle Rhine region and planning military operations.<br /> <p><p><br /> Although this manuscript predates the Napoleonic Wars its detailed geographic and strategic insights regarding potential military positions river crossings and logistical planning would have been highly useful to French commanders. The systematic efforts of the Dépôt de la Guerre in compiling such data were essential for shaping military strategies and ensuring effective operations along the Rhine and beyond. This manuscript remains a significant historical resource for understanding the military geography and strategy of the late 18th century.<br /> <p>. unknown

'Stunts by Fag End': contemporaneous account of first world war experiences by unidentified writer:
First World War Carbon copy of manuscript. entitled "Stunts by Fag End"
Without date or place. 3 pages 8vo. On three leaves of paper all creased discoloured and worn some fading with a few tears and pin holes. Lively humorous and well-written account of the army career of a skiver. 'Behold me then the next time in the trenches a Lewis Gunner <in going> my-self to be about to kill Bosches in neat little trenches of 47. As a matter of fact I did not kill one as I never fired the gun but we had one or two thrilling times. . January 1st. 1917 I became a member of the now famous Tank Corps. I said 'Goodbye' to Pack & rifle and received instead a kit bag & revolver it was one of my ambitions to possess a revolver But I was not happy for it was cold very very cold & I hate the cold. I was very thankful though to be out of the trenches where men were being frozen to death.' He then becomes a draughtsman for the Reconnaisance Office 'having an uncle and sic architect' before taking up 'yet another role for my Company R.O. had left his servant behind & so I stepped into his shoes & thus fulfilled the double duties of draughtsman and batman. This went on until just recently when my officer was wounded & went home to Blighty. I have now helped in a minor capacity the preparation for several big 'do's' & travelled hundreds of miles upon the trusty Triumph including one never to be forgotten joy ride to our Rest Camp by the sea where I spent eight days upon which was undoubtedly the best stunt of all viz. doing just what I liked.'
