Les travaux de Mars, ou, L'art de la guerre : divisé en trois parties ... : avec un ample détail de la milice des Turcs, tant pour l'attaque que pour la deffence : ouvrage enrichi de plus de quatre cens planches gravées en taille-douce
Les travaux de Mars is a 1684 French military treatise by Allain Manesson-Mallet, published in Amsterdam by Jan and Gillis Janson, covering fortification, siegecraft and the Ottoman army for an engineering readership. Its engravings show plans of star-shaped bastioned fortresses with lettered construction lines above perspective views of defenders, cannon and sappers at work, which a designer could draw on for fortification layouts, geometric plan diagrams and etched baroque battle scenes.
