Dictionnaire militaire : ou, Recueil alphabétique de tous les termes propres à la guerre
A French-language alphabetical dictionary of military terms compiled by François-Alexandre Aubert de La Chesnaye-Desbois and printed by G. C. Walther in Dresden in 1751, for officers and readers of the art of war. The scanned pages here are the binding's hand-marbled papers: combed nonpareil arches in red, blue, yellow, green and cream over speckled grounds, usable as tiling backgrounds, cover stock, or sources of repeating wave and scallop patterns.
