Most of page 2 and part of page 3 are taken up with great coverage of the Capture of Belle Ile during the Seven Years' War.
This event was a British expedition to capture the French island of Belle Île off the Brittany coast in 1761. After an initial British attack was repulsed, a second attempt was more successful & a landing was made. After a six-week siege, the island's main citadel at Le Palais was stormed, consolidating British control of the island.
Included in the report are the articles of capitulation.
Four pages, 9 1/2 by 14 3/4 inches, red tax stamp on the front page, very nice condition.
