Descriptionof Fortifications and Siegecraft

As centres of resistance and bases for offensive operations since the earliest times, fortifications are one of the most important elements in military history. As the author shows in this book, the significance of fortified places and the struggle for them runs through virtually the entire history of mankind. The remains of fortifications, which are often preserved, are still impressive and striking evidence of their importance and the enormous effort and resources that were required to build them. Taking a close look at the changes in the attack and defence of fortifications, the author traces the development of fortification within the broader context of the development of governments, societies and cultures. The author also takes a look at how this military heritage is being dealt with, modern and future weapons of war in fortification warfare, and their lasting significance.
