From New York Public Library's summary: "[C]ompiled by Christine de Pisan mainly from the French translation of Vegetius by [or rather, attributed to] Jean de Vignai, with additions from the Arbre des batailles of Honoré Bonnor [also spelled Bovet or Bonet]."--Catalogue of books printed in the XVth century now in the British Museum. See also Lefèvre, Sylvie. "Christine de Pizan," in Dictionnaire des lettres françaises: le Moyen Âge, édition entièrement revue et mise à jour, 1994, pages 285-286: "La première [partie] s'inspire essentiellement de Végèce, la seconde de Frontin"; in the third part, the author relates a dream in which she is advised to make use of Honoré Bovet's Arbre des batailles and to ignore accusations of plagiarism directed at her.
