Abstract
THIS useful and striking map depicts the country from the Seine to the Rhine, and from the Swiss frontier to the Rhine delta, on a scale of eight miles to 1 in.(1: 500,000). It is provided with contour lines and layered colouring, and shows vividly the interdependence of land relief and military strategy. It is issued in several forms-unmounted, mounted in sections, and mounted on rollers, varnished or unvarnished, at prices varying from ios. 6d. to 17s. 6d. Produced under the supervision of Prof. Herbertson, it provides an excellent and trustworthy companion for the student of current events in France.
