1748 ENGLISH Vauban FORTS Military Engineering Fortifications Illustrated War Sebastien Le Prestre de Vauban was a 17th-century French engineer who, after serving as the Marshal of France, became known as the greatest engineer of his time. It was from his surveys and developments in fortifications that propelled him to engineering fame. In fact, his fortification philosophies were used for nearly a century after his life. Vauban understood that at some point, all forts would fall, no matter how powerful. From this, Vauban sought to improve fort designs to absorb as much of the attack force as possible, even including house and structures to support fortification walls. This 1748 English edition of Vauban s famous Method of Fortification contains each of the highly desirable 32 engravings views of forts, walls, and common attack strategies.
