Description from the seller
Russia. - True Relation of the Fight, which took place this 3/14 July between the entire Swedish Army and a part of the Tsarist army near Hollowczyn, dated Sklow this 5/16 July 1708. Or True Relation of the 3/14 July 1708 near Hollowczyn between a Muscovite corps and the complete Swedish army preceding the action, dated Sklow 5/16 July 1708. Beside a list of those on the Muscovite side who were killed, wounded, and taken prisoner. O. O., 1708. 6 pages. Saddle-stitched. 19 x 15 cm. With French and German text.
About the Battle of Golowtschin (in present-day Belarus), on 3 July or 14 July 1708 (the discrepancy in the title arises from the Swedish/Julius (Julian) and Gregorian calendars). It was one of the most tactically masterful victories of Charles XII, in which he surprised the Russian positions despite difficult, swampy terrain. The battle is regarded as the Swedish king’s last great victory before the decisive defeat at Poltava in the following year.
