Inhaltsangabe
Scotland has had a uniquely important military history over the last five centuries. Conflict with England in the 16th century, Jacobite rebellions in the 18th century, 20th-century defences and the two world wars, as well as the Cold War, all resulted in significant cartographic activity.In this book two map experts explore the extraordinarily rich legacy of Scottish military mapping, including fortification plans, reconnaissance mapping, battle plans, plans of military roads and routeways, tactical maps, plans of mines, enemy maps showing targets, as well as plans showing the construction of defences. In addition to plans, elevations and views, they also discuss unrealised proposals and projected schemes. Most of the maps – some of them reproduced in book form for the first time – are visually striking and attractive, and all have been selected for the particular stories they tell about both attacking and defending the country.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Scotland's warring relationship with England, from the Rough Wooing in the 1540s to the Jacobite uprising in 1745, and its later roles in defending against French invasion, the two world wars and Cold War strategy, have left a rich legacy of Scottish military mapping. Using maps and plans for fortifications, reconnaissance, military roads, defensive constructions and battle plans, this book examines the history of attacking and defending Scotland.
