Associated with the seventh of the nine Cape Frontier Wars (1846-1847), known as the 'war of the axe'. Like the six previous wars, it was between the Xhosa people and European settlers. The Xhosa forces were far greater than those of the imperial British troops, and by this time they had replaced their traditional weapons with modern firearms. It was their new use of guns that made the Xhosa considerably more effective in fighting the British. On 28 May, a force of 8,000 Xhosa attacked the last remaining British garrison, at Fort Peddie, but fell back after a long shootout with British and Fengu troops. The Xhosa army then marched on Grahamstown itself, but was held up when a sizeable army of Ndlambe Xhosa were defeated on 7 June 1846 by General Somerset on the Gwangu, a few miles from Fort Peddie.

Frederick the Great defeated the allied armies of France and the Holy Roman/Austrian Empire.

A Swedish print of the Skirmish at Bender (1 February 1713), with Charles XII of Sweden (1682 – 1718) in the middle of the action. After the defeat of the Swedish at the Battle of Poltava in 1709, Charles was far away from Sweden and he needed somewhere to go. The Ottoman Empire had disliked Russia since time immemorial so Charles XII received the hospitality of Sultan Ahmed III and fled to the town of Bender in the modern country of Moldova. Charles XII of Sweden overstayed his welcome by a few years; so the Ottoman forces, forced him out and after some fighting Charles XII and his fighters were captured. After some time as a prisoner, Charles XII and his soldiers were released when news about the Swedish victory in the Battle of Gadebusch reached the Ottomans.

Wyke Pinx.t. [Engraved by John Brooks.]
Printed for T. Kitchin Engraver, at No 59 Holborn Hill, London [but later 1770].
Rare mezzotint. 460 x 710mm (18 x 28"). Framed. Some spotting and staining. Unexamined out of frame.
A large battle scene, centred on William III on his white horse, surrounded by his officers, named in a key bottom left. The main sites of the battle are listed in a key bottom right. Extremely scarce & very large mezzotint in reasonably good condition. Originally Chaloner Smith listed this state as Engraver Not Ascertained; however his addenda describes a single example of a state with letters but no key (suggesting a separate key plate) with 'I Brooks fecit'. A second state has the key added but 'Sold by Tho.s Jefferys at Charing Cross and W. Herbert on London Bridge', also listing only one example. Thus this is the third known state. According to the British Museum, John Brooks learned mezzotint from John Faber and set himself up publishing mezzotints in his native Dublin. He moved to London in 1746 with his apprentices James McArdelll and Richard Houston.

Engraving, sheet 250 x 170mm (9¾ x 6¾"). Laid in album sheet.
Representation of the allied occupation of Port St Mary, which preceded the battle of Cadiz in 1702 during the War of the Spanish Succession. After the allies landed, they marched on Rota and then entered the town of Port St Mary, and looted the town's unguarded warehouses, convents and churches (as shown here). This conduct both caused Prince George to send home a report despairing of the behaviour, and ended any chance of the local population supporting the allies. The advance lost momentum thereafter, and the allies' attempt to capture Cadiz ended in abject failure. Plate to a volume on events during the reign of Queen Anne.
