Post subject:  Petri's 1759 Map of Saxony
Apparently this prussian map was Napoleon's reference in 1806 and 1813. I asked a question about it on the BFC Les Grogs forum and received an excellent answer. Alas, that forum was slammed shut by snotty BTS before I could save the info.

I can find relatively little about this map online: for example, http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Categ ... ri_1759%29

I first encountered the map in a pocket accompanying Vachee's 'Napoleon at Work'.

What a great resource for a campaign it would be. Does anyone know anything about the map? Or anything about where to go looking for such maps (with a view to getting copies)?

This site has nice antique maps as well:

This is where I found the map that I used to add in the points of interest tags for the city of Augsburg in Campaign Austerlitz.
