Beginning with an account of the general development of infantry, cavalry, and artillery weapons during the period 1480 to 1650, this book then goes on to describe every major nation, from France and Spain to Sweden and the Netherlands; Ottoman Turkey and Persia to Muscovy and Poland. In each case the origins, strengths, basic organization, uniforms, flags, and weapons are described as fully as possible within the limitations of surviving manuscripts and illustrations which the author, himself a history lecturer, has delved deeply to discover. The book thus opens up a completely new aspect of one of the most significant periods of Western history—the Renaissance. | |

The publication of The Army of Flanders and the Spanish Road marked the birth of the "new military history", which emphasized military organization–mobilization, pay, supply, morale and, above all, logistics–rather than military "events" such as sieges and battles. | |

“The history of the sword,” the author writes in his introduction, “is the history of humanity.” For centuries, the sword has been a symbol of power, strength, liberty, and courage. In the Middle Ages, the image of a sword was used to signify the word of God. Nearly every culture in history has forged blades from stone or steel to fight in times of battle and protect in times of peace. | |

The Civil War and the World War II stand as the two great cataclysms of American history. They were our two costliest wars, with well over a million casualties suffered in each. And they were transforming moments in our history as well, times when the life of the nation and the great experiment in democracy--government of the people, by the people, for the people--seemed to hang in the balance. | |

The catapult (katapeltikon) was invented under the patronage of Dionysius I, tyrant of Syracuse, in the 4th century bc. At first only the arrow-firing variant was used, and it was not until the reign of Alexander the Great that stone-projecting catapults were introduced. | |

Siege machinery first appeared in the West during the Carthaginian invasion of Sicily in the late-5th century BC, in the form of siege towers and battering rams. After a 50-year hiatus these weapons of war re-appeared in the Macedonian armies of Philip II and Alexander the Great, a period that saw the height of their development in the Ancient World. | |
