The great sieges of the Reconquista on the Iberian Peninsula. The author describes not only the background, course and consequences of various sieges from this 700-year conflict between Christians and Moors, but also the different tactics of medieval siege warfare and the siege engines used, including the firearms that emerged from the 14th century onwards, which tipped the balance in favour of the Christians in the last great siege of Granada in 1492.
