Shoulder to Shoulder: a story of the stirring times of old
A boys' historical adventure novel by Gordon Stables, issued in London by Shaw & Co. in 1896 for young readers of tales of war and intrigue in earlier centuries. Nineteen captioned wash-drawn plates show musketeers and cloaked figures in woodland, a pistol held to a man's brow, and an exploding shell above the Antwerp bastions; useful for period costume, weapons and smoky tonal skies.
