Breda, Koninklijke Militaire Academie, 1843.. Hardcover. .. Octavo. Pp. viii, 460, (2). Set in Gothic type. Hardcover, bound in contemporary quarter calf and marbled boards, spine in compartments lettered and decorated in gilt and blind, cloth corners, marbled endpapers and edges; joints bit rubbed, one corner-tip bit chafed. In a very good condition. Nice copy, very clean interior. ~ First edition. Interesting, probably the earliest book entirely dedicated to the German education of Dutch military cadets undergoing training at the Royal Military Academy at Breda. The rather ambitious goal, as reflected in the scope and scale of this book, encompasses language, literature, and culture, and surpasses anything that can be described as a teaching material. Very rare.
