Weapons and Tactics: Hasting to Berlin
Jac Weller
First Edition Hardcover Published 1966
Battles are not won by great commanders or vast armies with the best ordnance but by individual soldiers with their person weapons fighting on the field. If tanks had been available to Harold's army at Hastings, against the sword and bow of the Normans, there may have been a completely different outcome to history. This book gives us a fascinating examination of weaponry throughout the ages by an author who has studied such topics, is an honorary curator of West Point Museum, a qualified engineer and a military historian.
As with everything we list, unless stated within the description, all of our books are hardcover and in a Very Good to Unread condition.
