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.

A Hit with Both My Puppy and Older Dog!
I bought the Nylabone Moderate Chew FlexiChew Bone in the peanut butter and bacon flavor for my new puppy, and he absolutely loves them! What’s even better is that my other dog is just as obsessed with them, so it's been a hit with both. The size is perfect for my tiny puppy, and the flavor keeps them both engaged for a long time. These bones are durable enough to last, even with moderate chewing, and they help satisfy their natural chewing instincts. If you’re looking for a great chew toy for both puppies and small dogs, I highly recommend these Nylabones. They’re a definite favorite in our household!

Good quality

Very sturdy for super chewer dog. Only change I would make is I wish it held more kibble but dog loves it and I don’t worry she will choke on a broken piece when I’m away.

BEST DOG TOY for TREATS EVER!!!!
Color: Brown
If I could have given more than 5 stars, I would have! I had been giving my 70 lb boxer peanut butter in femur bones that I got at the pet store for years. She loved them but the bones would break down from chewing and biting on them. I would have to throw them away when the edges got sharp in fear of cutting my dog's mouth and tongue. This PETSWEET dog toy was the answer. I have been using yogurt, peanut butter and pumpkin so far. I freeze them with the goodies as is suggested. My dog LOVES her evening treat now and I don't worry about sharp edges hurting her mouth. It is washable so more sanitary than the femur bones.

Update to original review: After leaving initial review the seller reached out and asked how to fix it the issue. I was willing to try same product again. They sent me two and I have had no problems with either of the new ones. Great communication from seller. My dog loves the treat In the center and chews on the product forever. She has not been able to get the top off of either of the new ones. Thanks!
