Blenheim, the Schellenberg and the sieges of Landau and Huy are planned in detail in these maps from the Military History of the late Prince Eugene of Savoy and the late John, Duke of Marlborough, published in London by Claude du Bosc in the 1730s. The text draws on work associated with Jean Dumont and Jean Rousset de Missy. The campaigns cross Italy, Germany, the Low Countries and Spain, with Luzzara among the battles and regional maps setting the armies in their wider theatres of war. Town plans show the bastions, outworks and approaches of Mantua, Turin, Gibraltar, Barcelona and other places, and engraved battle scenes accompany the diagrams.
