Battle of Borodino 7 September 1812 (map plate 75), engraved by A.K. Johnston for Atlas to Alison's History of Europe, published by W. Blackwood & Sons, Edinburgh & London, in 1850.

Alexander Keith Johnston (1804 - 1871) was a Scottish geographer and cartographer. His initial interest to geography was inspired by inaccuracy of maps Johnston used in his early years hiking in West Highlands. After graduating from University of Edinburgh he joined his brother in printing business "W. & A. K. Johnston" which used the clan motto "Ready Aye Ready" as their logo. The rest of Johnston's life was devoted to geography and map making. Among other works, Johnston created the first English language physical globe of the world, and an atlas of military geography to accompany Alison's History of Europe, first published in 1848. The company W & A K Johnston were appointed engravers to King William IV and Johnston was later elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.

The Battle of Borodino was fought near village of Borodino on 7 September 1812 during Napoleon’s invasion of Russia. The French Grand Armée (128,000) has won the battle, but at the cost of severe losses and without decisive victory over Russian forces (155,200) under General Michail Kutuzov. The fighting began at 6-00 by French artillery fire and by 11-30 the French were in control of Russian positions. The smoke was impenetrable and the fighting was so intense that infantry and cavalry had difficulty manoeuvring over the heaps of corpses and wounded. Russian general Barclay de Tolly later described moving his troops forward as “a walk into Hell”. With loss of positions and several leading generals, Russian moral and command structure started to collapse, and Russian army had fallen back. Several French generals asked Napoleon to commit the Imperial Guard to the battle, for a final blow. At this crucial point however, Napoleon, who have been sick with cold, was reluctant to use his Imperial Guard, which remained in reserve throughout the battle. The Russian army managed to retreat, allowing the French to march into Moscow. The losses of both armies accounted to a third of total with 28.000 French killed and wounded, while the Russian casualties were around 44.000. The French army was in occupation of Moscow for five weeks, while Napoleon was waiting for a Russian surrender which never came. Once the freezing weather set in, Napoleon attempted to escape the country and save the army. This winter retreat was plagued by the cold, disease, hunger and Russian attacks, all of which turned French withdrawal into a catastrophe which shattered Napoleon’s reputation of invincibility.

Not My Favorite
Size: X-Large, Color: (401) Team Royal / / Black
I am on the fence with this product. I generally love Under Armour clothing, and the color is great. It fits well, too. But this sports bra has removable pads in it, and when I went to wash it, they got all turned around. The way you take out the pads and put them back in is pretty narrow, so it’s kind of hard to do. So I tried stitching them in place, but that didn’t work, they still got lumpy. Finally I just pulled them out and I use the sports bra without the padding. I suppose I should’ve just pulled the padding out each time I washed it, but it seems to me they need washing too? I don’t think I would buy this again.

By far the best 1/4 pull over zip I have ever bought - 5 stars
This is the most comfortable and best looking pullover 1/4 zip I have ever bought. It looks really good on me and it is super soft, but not too soft that it looks cheap. I did not get hot in it and I get hot easy in long sleeves. It breaths well and yet also kept me from a chilly breeze. The collar is one of the best I have ever found for a pull over like this as it does not poke me and it stays upright and looks very sharp. The only thing about it is that I had to put it in my steam dryer and then hang upside down to dry overnight as it had a few wrinkles in it when it came. So it is not 1,000% wrinkle free, but after wearing it half a day it did not wrinkle at all. As long as you keep it on a long wooden hanger I do not think it will wrinkle. If you dont have long wooden hangers thought, since it is a tad heavy, the shoulders I think would get bumps hanging a long time in the closet on a short hanger (like all long sleeve shirts with a little weight like this would). I got this one as it was I thought the most masculine color match. I would love to see this in other colors and keep everything else the same. I love the inner collar pattern design as it gives it a nice look. I am 5'11" and about 230 lbs and it fit me in a XL perfect. I have broad shoulder and bigger chest and a bit of a dad bod, so I wanted something that is not baggy nor snug on my mid area (so I don't look fat). This is the perfect length too, it is long enough it won't come up if I reach up and show my stomach, and long enough to be a tag long in the back, but short enough that it doesn't look too long. All in all, this size and fit was perfect for me. My style is I want to look good but I have to be comfortable and that is not the easiest to do, but this with some nice pants (of any kind) is a really sharp look and comfortable.
