Facsimile of extremely rare XVIII cent. manuscript in an only single copy! (from Library of the Russian Academy of Sciences)
Both volumes are manuscripts from the stitched book way notebooks, leather-bound in quarto.

On the leather spines of volumes according to their content names embossed volumes - "Geometrie pratique" and "Fortication".
Total in the first volume 176 sheets, of which 17 are twisted sheets of drawings, in the second volume - 171 list, including 38 drawing sheets.
Abram Petrovich Gannibal, also Hannibal or Ganibal or Abram Hannibal or Abram Petrov (Russian: Абрам Петрович Ганнибал; 1696 – 14 May[2] 1781), was an Afro-Russian nobleman, military engineer and general. Kidnapped as a child and presented as a gift to Peter the Great, he was raised in the Emperor's household, and eventually rose to become a prominent member of the imperial court in the reign of Peter's daughter Elizabeth. He is the great-grandfather of the author and poet Alexander Pushkin.
