More Articles On This Topic
Additional Reading
The most comprehensive monograph is P. Lazard, Vauban, 1633–1707 (1934), well illustrated and covering the development of France’s corps of military engineers from its origins to Vauban’s time. There is also a shorter life, in French, by A. Rebelliau, Vauban (1962). English readers may consult Sir Reginald Theodore Blomfield, Sebastien le Prestre de Vauban, 1633–1707 (1938), which owes something to Lazard and is quite well illustrated.
