Infantry Sword Exercise

Treatise 1817 English United Kingdom

Henry Charles Angelo

I-block staging entry validated for model fit. Imported from staging batch duell-thimm-i, source entry 1080.

Consolidated from former works #2253–#2256. Thimm’s consecutive “Ditto” entries establish one edition family: 1817, 1819, revised editions of 1842 and 1845, and official Horse Guards revisions of 1862 and 1875. Henry Angelo is retained as author of the work-base; later official revisions are documented at edition level.
