Memoir on the financial scandal that affected Antoine Lavalette, a Jesuit missionary priest in Martinique. To restore the treasury of the Jesuit mission in Martinique, he set up some commercial operations which failed and was heavily indebted to the sieurs Lioncy and Gouffre, merchants from Marseille.

First edition.
Inventor of the term "strategy", it is with the Theory of War (1777) that Maizeroy completed his work of theorization, because although History is much less present there, it is a manual intended for instruction of young officers on elementary tactics and major tactics.
In this work he states that the use of thin or deep order is a choice belonging to the general and thus gives more flexibility to systems on the battlefield.
