Contenant un traité pratique des mines. et une autre de la guerre en general.The Hague Pieter de Hondt 1742. First edition of Vauban's treatises on siegecraft and military mining. Of all the 17th- and 18th-century books "on military technology no works had greater influence or enjoyed greater prestige than those of Sebastien Le Prestre de Vauban the great military engineer of the reign of Louis XIV" Guerlac. Although a highly practical man and not a theoretician Vauban had written down the secrets of his success in the building and capturing of fortresses between 1669 and 1704. Vauban's strategic superiority could only remain if this information was kept secret so his texts circulated only within a very select circle. After Vauban's death they were leaked. "By the time the treatises became available Vauban's early readers must have been ready to believe that the text finally being made public did in fact contain incredible military secrets and have the power to make nations invincible. No other treatise of siegecraft had been surrounded by such secrecy" DeJean. The first volume contained Vauban's treatise on the attack of fortified places but the added part on defence was actually written by a colleague seigneur Deshoulières 1621-1693. A second volume published in 1742 contained Vauban's treatise on military mining and a general treatise on war.With library stamps. Binding slightly worn.

Contenant un Trait Pratique des Mines. Le Have The Hague: Pierre de Hondt 1737 1742. Two volumes in one. Quarto early 19th-century half green cloth blue marbled boards. $2800.First editions of VaubanÕs massive posthumous two-volume De lÕAttaque et de la la Dfense des Places the Òstandard work for students of fortifications and siegecraft until the second half of the 19th centuryÓ with 45 splendid engraved plates including 25 folding by this powerfully influential military strategist whose legacy was so esteemed by Napoleon that he ordered VaubanÕs heart be placed under the dome of the Invalides in Paris.Legendary 17th-century military strategist Sbastien le Prestre de Vauban is considered central in Òdetermining the course of siege warfare for the next century or more. Not only did he provide a systematic discussion of the siege attack the basis for tactical doctrine but his legacyÉ completely altered the face of early modern siegecraft reversing the dominance of the century-old trace italienne design and overturning as well the pattern of long bloody uncertain sieges of the 16th and 17th centuries. His swift conquests of Spanish and Dutch towns in the War of Devolution the Dutch War the War of Reunions and the Nine YearsÕ War won him fame throughout Europe; a contemporary adage boasted that a town besieged by Vauban was one taken while a town defended by him was one savedÉ The Vauban legacy thus eliminated the eternal sieges of a previous age.Ó Vauban who was made Marshal of France in 1703 directed 47 sieges during the many campaigns that shaped the countryÕs emerging frontiers under Louis XIV. In times of both war and peace he worked tirelessly at designing and building new fortresses and strengthening existing ones. Vauban almost single-handedly reversed the tendency of arduous expensive sieges and although he died in 1707 Òhis legacy lasted far beyond his death. His stone and brick fortresses shaped campaigns long after he had been buried and outline FranceÕs hexagon today; some of them still stand having survived even WWII bombardments e.g. Cherbourg and BrestÉ Much has been made of VaubanÕs strategic vision particularly his creation of a rationalized fortified frontiere de fer shielding France the famous pre carre translated alternately as a dueling round or a squared circleÉ. The territorial boundaries Louis XIV conquered and defended with the aid of VaubanÕs abilities last to this dayÓ Ostwald Vauban Under Siege 9-13. Vauban is also seen as the first since the classic age of Rome to systematically build proper permanent barracks to accommodate soldiersÑa vital step in promoting their health well-being and discipline. The sieges conducted by NapoleonÕs armies in the Iberian Peninsular in the second decade of the 19th century were clearly recognizable as Vauban-style assaults. So great was NapoleonÕs esteem for Vauban that in May 1808 he honored Vauban by arranging to have his heart placed within the grand monument erected under the dome of the Invalides in Paris. ÒVaubanÕs highly-renowned De lÕAttaque et de la Defense des PlacesÉ. was the standard work for students of fortifications and siegecraft until the second half of the 19th centuryÓ Gat Origins 35.
