It takes 16 maps from the Théâtre de la guerre en Italie (called Nolin II B by Pastoureau), and adds only 8 new realizations (it is not clear why Pastoureau says 7 when she actually lists eight). Our copy is almost identical to the one described by Mireille Pastoureau from the Bibliothèque de Rouen (see below), with a few differences in card placement (card list on request). Pastoureau, Les Atlas français, pp. 360-361 (Nolin II C). Attractive oval bookplate vignette depicting an owl with outstretched wings and the motto "Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas". Beautiful atlas bound in morocco.
