Note generali

In two parts. F. S. Ferguson examined both the Huth copies and the British Library copy and drew up the following ideal description: Engraved frontispiece with Mars seated upon a cannon (present only in Huth 4982); part 1 collates A-E F⁴ (A1, letterpress title page; A2, dedication; A3-F2, text, pp. 1-79, [80]; F3,4 blank); part 2 has engraved title page, 44 numbered musket positions, and 33 numbered pike positions, 1 per recto (complete only in Huth 4982), gathered in



12's: [A-F¹²  G⁶]. The British Library copy has 4 unnumbered engravings of officers inserted at the beginning of part 2 and some engravings in pen facsimiles. Both Huth copies were resold at Sotheby's, 27 February 1922, lots 153-4, and bought by Ellis. Michigan acquired Huth 4982 in 1936, by which time the engraved frontispiece, musket no. 44, and pike no. 33 were no longer present. The engravings are copies of de Gheyn, cf. STC 11810--Cf. STC.

Title, imprint, and suggested actual publication date from STC.

The engravings of pike and musket are derived from: Gheyn, Jacob de.  The exercise of armes for calivres, muskettes, and pikes.
