The Cambridge illustrated history of warfare by 6786277|Geoffrey Parker book cover

πŸ“˜ The Cambridge illustrated history of warfare

War is a compelling subject. It is common to almost all known societies and periods of history. The Cambridge Illustrated History of Warfare provides a detailed and highly visual account of war in the West from antiquity to the present day, and is unique among works of its type because of its close integration of text and image and its controversial thesis that war in western societies has followed a unique path leading to western dominance of the globe. The Cambridge Illustrated History of Warfare is essential reading for military enthusiasts, for everyone with an interest in the battles, campaigns, strategies, and fighting techniques which have - for better or worse - shaped our world, and for all who wish to understand how the West achieved its position of global dominance.
