Samenvatting
During the 17th century, technological evolutions in fortifications and arms meant wars grew longer, armies larger, and military formations more disciplined. From the Thirty Years' War to the campaigns of Louis XIV, a richly detailed picture emerges from this narrative. Military life and structure in the 1600s -- its conflicts and conduct, the rise of a standing army, the difficulties posed by reliance on paid soldiers, the changing weaponry, the politics are covered, and through it all, the relentless world shift from ancient to modern.
