Notes (ENG):
Paperback, in quarto small, with black and white illustrations and fine drawings. First published in 1975, second edition in 1978.
Review (ENG):
This revised second edition is still the first book ever to record in detail the organisation, equipment, uniforms, flags and tactics of the armies of the Renaissance period. In military as in other arts the Renaissance was a period of rapid and significant change with the paraphernalia of medieval warfare co-existing with the new weapons and organisation which quickly rendered the former obsolete. Profusely illustrated with drawings and contemporary prints.
