Açıklama

An authoritative survey, richly illustrated with photographs, manuscript illustrations, and specially commissioned 3-D battle reconstructions.

Spanning some 1,000 years from the fall of the Roman Empire to the Reformation, the medieval period was a time of immense diversity in military practice. The Medieval World at War brings together accounts not only of European and Middle Eastern warfare but also of Central Asian, Indian, Chinese, and Japanese conflict.

Organized chronologically in ten chapters, the book ranges widely from Charlemagne's empire building, the Viking invasions of northern Europe, and the Christian crusades against Islam to Mongol horse-archers, the Teutonic knights of Germany, the gunpowder revolution, the Ottoman threat to Europe, and Samurai warfare.
