Plan of Turin as Besieged in 1706.
I. Basire Sculp.
For Mr Tindal's Continuation of Mr Rapin's History of England. [London, James & Paul Knapton, 1751.]
Engraved map. 390 x 480mm (15¼ x 19"). Original binding folds, trimmed into plate at top, as issued.
A plan of Turin under siege by the French during the War of the Spanish Succession. The siege lasted two months and the French were on the point of victory when Prince Eugene of Savoy arrived with a relief army. Caught between Eugene's army and Turin's garrison, the siege collapsed, causing Marlborough to write 'I not only esteem, but I really love that Prince'. Nicholas Tindal (1687-1774), at one time Chaplain to Greenwich Hospital, first published a translation of Frenchman Paul de Rapin's 'History of England' in 1727, running to thirteen volumes; in 1732 it was enlarged with his own notes and maps. This map was published in 'A summary of Mr Rapin de Thoyras's History of England, and Mr Tindal's Continuation, from the Invasion of Julius Caesar, to the End of the Reign of King George I. Illustrated With Medals, Plans of Battles, Towns, and Sieges', 1751.

Tabula Itineris Decies Mille Graecorum sub Cyro contra fratrem Artaxerxem Regem Persarum.
Per P. du Val Abbevillensem, Geographum Regium.
[Paris, c.1680.]
Coloured engraving with very large margins. 415 x 490mm (16¼ x 19¼"). Paper age-toned.
A classical map of Turkey, Persia and Cyprus, illustrating the march of the 'Ten Thousand' (401-399 BC). These Greek mercenaries joined Cyrus the Younger in his attempt to wrest the Persian Empire from his brother Artaxerxes II. They fought the Battle of Cunaxa, during which they scattered their opponents with only one of their number wounded, but Cyrus had been killed, making their victory irrelevant and the expedition a failure. Turning for home, they lost their leaders to a treacherous Persian invitation to a feast but, after electing new leaders, they escaped to the sea. The story of the expedition is known through the 'Anabasis' of Xenophon, one of the later leaders, which is thought to have inspired Philip of Macedon and his son Alexander to take on Persia.
