Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Annals of a Fortress The Fortress whose transmutations during successive ages are so vividly described in the following pages is an idea one; its supposed situation is on the Cousin, an affluent of the Saône. The practical genius of the author indicates the position which, in view of the new eastern frontier, should be fortified in order to command the Saône. To his unrivalled talent as an architect, Monsieur Viollet-de-Duc adds the highest qualifications of the military engineer. In this branch of applied science he is a recognized authority; and it may not be out of place to notice here that he was frequently consulted by the late Emperor respecting the permanent defenses of the country. It is not too much to assert that if his recommendations has been carried out the investment of Paris would have been rendered impossible, whilst the progress of the German invasion elsewhere would have been attended with greater difficulties.
