AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

The map depicts in detail the theater of military operations in 1848, during the first major conflict between the Kingdom of Sardinia and the Austrian Empire. The area depicted includes the entire strategic axis between:

Brescia / Lake Idro / Lake Garda / Riva / Rovereto / Trento / Verona / Mantua / Legnago / Lonato / Desenzano / Peschiera / Castiglione / Valeggio / Borgoforte

It is a military topographic map showing:
• main and secondary roads
• rivers, canals and tactical passages
• towns, fortresses and strongholds
• connection lines between Lombardy, Veneto and Trentino
• the position of the Alpine and pre-Alpine lakes, fundamental for war logistics

The highlighted area is the one that, between March and August 1848, was the heart of the Italian Holy War, as the patriotic press of the time called it.
Condition

Good for the time.
Editorial centerfold, light creasing at the edges, some signs of wear on the back, but overall the paper is solid and legible. No missing parts.
