PRESTWICH, MICHAEL Armies and Warfare in the Middle Ages, the English Experience
New Haven, CT, U.S.A. Yale University Press, 1996, First Edition. (ISBN: 0300064527) Hard Cover with dust jacket, 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Re-creates the real experience of medieval warfare, which was far removed from the image of knights resplendent in armour, and in reality consisted of cold, hungry men pressing elusive foes who refused to do battle. Challenges many common assumptions about medieval warfare showing that commanders used sophisticated strategies, use of spies was commonplace and the destruction of crops a deliberate attempt to force a foe to negotiate. Clean, bright copy in unclipped dustjacket. 396 pages including index. Immediate UK dispatch. Fine/Near Fine.
Offered for GBP 20.00 = appr. US$ 32.72 by: YesterYear Books - Book number: 007597
