Condition: New. 2005 N&M Press reprint (of original 1913 pub). SB. viii + 340pp with 15 mapsPublished Price £15 Napoleonâs great victory over Prussia at Jena, with the associated victory by the dogged Marshal Davout at Auerstadt on the same day (14th October 1806) marked the summit of Napoleonâs brilliant career, and the low point of Prussian military power first established by Frederick the Great in the previous century. The twin battles also shattered the fourth allied coaltion against France, although Prussia doggedly battled on. The following year, (February 1807) Napoleon scored another victory over Prussia at Eylau, a savage battle fought in a snowstorm. But the heavy French losses made Eylau a Pyhrric victory, and the author of this book - from a distinguished Prussian military family - argues that the battle also marked a resurgence of Prussian fortunes and laid the foundation for its later and final triumphs over Napoleon at Leipzig and Waterloo. This book is a classic account of a key moment in the Napoleonic wars that should not be missed.Offer expires 31March 2008.

See his entry in the Oxford DNB. From the Piffard papers. Marshall's handwriting is hurried and in places difficult to decipher. 2pp, 12mo. In good condition, lightly aged. Folded once. Addressed to 'Dear Mr. Piffard' and signed 'John Marshall'. Piffard's gift of 'the Box of flowers, with [?]' leads him to opine: 'The Daffodils are lovely. - Why is Nature so beautiful? Can it be merely to please the Eye of Man? Surely not, for much of it, nay most of it would evolve itself, if man were to be exterminated tomorrow.' After expressing pleasure at Piffard's continuing good health, he discusses 'remarks about [Sponge?]' by the recipient, ending with the observation that the response of 'larynx & trachea & bronchi to the action of cold air, & East Wind, remains as an individual factor, "a personal equation" the [?] would say, which [strike?] faces'. He ends by explaining that he should have been in Dublin on that day, 'receiving the Honorary Fellowship of the Royl. Coll. of Surgeons in Ireland, - dining c. the Lord Lieutenant &c. &c.', but that he 'dare not risk the double journey'. In a postscript he adds that there is 'nothing of Epilepsy or other serious trouble in Mrs. Piffard's attacks. Irregularity of the Circulation, owing to temporary causes, will account for all.'.
