Original printed wrappers, corner of cover clipped off with an handwritten excuse note by Breman. In fine internal condition. ~ FIRST EDITION. Breman was renowned for the excellent, detailed descriptions of his books. Less known is that he himself designed his catalogues and brought them to print in a pre desktop publishing era, using only scissors and a Xerox copier. A remarkable production of great interest to the study of old books on military fortifications and artillery. On Surirey de Saint Rémy's "Memoires d'Artillerie" he once wrote: "an amazingly thorough and detailed work by which all later writers have had to measure their own contributions. a Complete Art which has never been bettered."
