This is a fine set of maps covering much of Central Europe with an emphasis on the German Empire. The maps were issued in a series from 1756 to 1758 illustrating the beginning of the Seven Years War, and in 1778 (A Map of the Seat of War in Bavaria and Bohemia) when war had once again broken out in The War of Bavarian Succession. The London Magazine was one of the major British periodicals of the 18th century and contained a great many finely engraved maps illustrating the important events of the period.
