This book consists of indications of battles and wars from the year 1 to 1999. The battles are printed in micrographic text vertically, with the yearly dates placed vertically in the center of the pages. Miranda Maher designates on the cover that "Years with No Acts of 'OPEN AND DECLARED ARMED HOSTILE CONFLICT' are Indicated with a Perpendicular LIne. Perhaps They Were Periods of Peace." Actually there is only one red, vertical line in the year 329, indicating no battles. The book is printed on light weight, beige paper with repeating, gilded Fleurs de Lis, -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
