Clash of Arms

Clash of Arms examines twelve very different English battles and explains how vital, often unpredictable and sometimes overwhelming factors may have influenced their eventual outcomes. Each chapter contains vivid battle narratives, fascinating contemporary accounts and information about the battles historical context and significance. Special sections cover themes such as weapon development, changes in battlefield tactics, biographies of some of the most influential leaders, battlefield archaeology, and how studying the landscape can aid our understanding of a battle. Lavishly illustrated with maps, contemporary pictures, historical re-enactments and photographs of the battlefields, Clash of Arms is the story of how men at war changed a country forever
