The book included diagrams and instructions on 'how to incamp an army'. Additional Places: Ireland.
From volume eight, Maps of Ireland, of the Dartmouth collection of maps and plans, compiled for or by George Legge, Master General of the Ordnance. There are four versions of this drawing in the volume.
