Since the editors' successful collaboration on the Waterloo Atlas in 2021, discussions have continued on the creation of a complementary work on contemporary views of the Peninsular War. This exciting new series begins with Landmann. The rarity and price of the two mammoth volumes, originally entitled "Historical, Military, and Picturesque Observations on Portugal. Illustrated by seventy-five coloured plates, including authentic plans of the victories and battles fought in the Peninsula during the late war" by George Landmann, Lieutenant-Colonel in the Corps of Royal Engineers, published in 1818, make them prohibitively expensive for most collectors - including the two publishers. They have therefore compiled all the colour plates from both volumes and also added nine contemporary maps by William Faden (1797) and a road map of Portugal from 1812.
