Description

London: : Gentleman's Magazine,, 1758. 7-1/2" x 9-3/4"- 19 x 24.7 cm. Copper engraved map. Very slight offsetting else very good. The Great Northern War spanned almost twenty years and pitted Sweden's Charles XII against a coalition group of Russian, Prussian and Danish troops. The Swedes had dominated possessions in Northern Europe but in 1715 their stronghold in northern Germany at Stralsund fell followed by Wismar. Charles was to be killed three years later which removed the last obstacle to peace in the area.
