Descriptionof The Age of Firepower
Manufacturer

A study of the military and the military revolution in the decisive 17th century in the context of the Thirty Years' War, depicted through dramatic battle scenes, personal, heroic and tragic for all social classes, and all brought to life in an impressive manner. The first world war in Europe was a global conflict that shows that early modern warfare, despite the Enlightenment thesis that contrasts the military brutality of the Middle Ages with modern customs, was full of horror and innocent suffering, exacerbated by modern weapons and state support. With impressive quotations from commanders to foot soldiers, readers feel involved, and the story moves from battlefield tactics to strategy and grand strategy to international relations. Here, the modern military state is at the centre of 17th-century military development and revolution, which led to modern and contemporary international warfare.
