Later 1/2 dark blue calf spine and corners, marbled paper boards (8-1/4" x 10-3/4"); viii, 424, [8] pages. Illustrated with 10 engraved folding maps. An important historical eye-witness account of Russian and Ukrainian history between 1727 and 1744. Manstein served in the Russian army in the Baltic, Siberia, and the Crimea and was an eyewitness to most of the incidents he relates here. Contents lightly toned with intermittent spotting, some folding maps with minor repaired tears and reinforced folds; minor rubbing to spine and corners. Very Good.
