(25 days of books from Prince Rupert's library)
'Militarie instructions for the cavallrie' by John Cruso was published in 1632.
It has to be one of the books you'd most expect to see in the library of the archetypal cavalier - this is the first manual in English dedicated to the cavalry.
Opens with 'The horse is prepared for battell: but victorie is from the Lord' and covers:
1. The levying of men
2. Their marching
3. Their encamping
4. Their embattelling
Gives many illustrations relating to the forces of Rupert's great-uncle, the Prince of Orange.

'Dell' Arcano del Mare' - or Mystery of the Sea - was a sea atlas of the world, written by Sir Robert Dudley, illegitimate son of Elizabeth I's favourite, the Earl of Leicester.
Written in Italian, it contained navigational knowledge, astronomical aids, shipbuilding, and naval & military discipline. With over 200 engraved plates and 146 charts, it was a prized book. Rupert had two copies.
Nowadays they are priced up to £1million.
