1869200022<p>Apparently two copies of this 48 page brochure exist in the BNF. These are the only ones we have been able to locate - so VERY RARE! This is an argument in favour of a drastic two-thirds reduction to leave only the light brigades still in 1869 potentially useful on the battlefield.<br />This booklet was purchased by Louis Tronchin a Colonel in the Swiss Federal Army. His handwritten autograph appears at the top of cover: "M. Louis Tronchin Col. Féd. à Lavigny".<br />Excellent condition despite light foxing throughout.<br /><b>Price negociable.
