India.- Third Anglo-Mysore War.- Smith (James) Plan of the position of the Confederate Armies under the Direction of Earl Cornwallis before Seringapatam, engraving by Armstrong, with some hand-colouring, on cream laid paper without visible watermark, platemark 420 x 320 mm (16 1/2 x 12 1/2 in), 495 x 340 mm (19 1/2 x 13 3/8 in), good margins, some signs of old damp-stains and cracking to sheet, but carefully restored and appears stable, marginal nicks, old folds, unframed, [c. 1793]*** This version of Smith's map, which seems to be unrecorded, was 'Reduced by M. Armstrong', presumably the surveyor and mapmaker Mostyn John Armstrong. Armstrong supplied the map of the Carnatic and Mysore for Home's volume, but this is from a second printing plate, although geographically near identical.
