Elements of Fortification: Field and Permanent for the Use of Students, Civilian and Military is a comprehensive guide to the principles and practices of fortification, written by Auguste Frederic Lendy and originally published in 1857. The book covers both field fortification, which involves the construction of temporary defenses in the field, and permanent fortification, which involves the construction of fortified structures and installations. The book is intended for use by both civilian and military students, and provides a detailed overview of the various types of fortifications used throughout history, as well as the materials and techniques used in their construction. It also covers the principles of strategic and tactical fortification, including the selection of sites, the design of fortifications, and the placement of defensive works. Throughout the book, Lendy provides numerous illustrations and diagrams to help readers understand the various concepts and techniques involved in fortification. He also includes detailed instructions for the construction of specific types of fortifications, such as trenches, redoubts, and bastions. Overall, Elements of Fortification: Field and Permanent for the Use of Students, Civilian and Military is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history, theory, and practice of fortification. It provides a comprehensive overview of the subject, and is written in a clear and accessible style that makes it easy to understand even for those with little prior knowledge of the topic.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
