Des bois propres au service des arsenaux de la marine et de la guerre, ou développement et rapprochement des lois, règlemens et instructions concernant la recherche, le martelage et l'exploitation des arbres propres aux constructions navales, de l'artillerie ...
An 1813 French administrative treatise by P.-É. Herbin de Halle, published by S. C. L'Huillier, setting out regulations for selecting, marking and felling timber for naval construction, artillery and war arsenals. The two pictures are a compass-and-square emblem with a monogram and foliage, and a tabular chart of tree trunks with French timber categories labelled beside them, useful for designers wanting engraved botanical-style tables or emblematic ornament.
