Battle of Austerlitz 2nd December 1805 (map plate 37), 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 Austerlitz was fought on 2nd of December 1805, near town of Austerlitz (Slavkov u Brna in present-day Czech Republic), then part of the Austrian Empire. The battle ended with a decisive victory of Napoleon's Grande Armee (also known as Armee d'Angleterre as intended to strike at England) and became one of the most important military engagements of the Napoleonic Wars. The battle is considered as Napoleon's tactical masterpiece which led to massive losses and a complete defeat of the Allied army, and an abrupt end of the War of the Third Coalition. Napoleon has provided generous rewards to his officers and soldiers and personally adopted the orphaned children of the fallen, allowing them to add "Napoleon" to their names. A famous quote derived from the Emperor Napoleon's advice to his marshals at Austerlitz battlefield: "Never interrupt your enemy when he is making a mistake".

The best no show socks
The only no show socks I have ever found that do not slide down. These are very comfortable and the extra tab on the back provides comfort by keeping shoes from rubbing the back of your foot. The top of the sock also comes up high enough to cushion the top of your foot all while still remaining hidden while wearing tennis shoes or even with my hey dudes.
