Weapons and Fighting Techniques of the Medieval Warrior by Martin J Dougherty

Weapons and Fighting Techniques of the Medieval Warrior by Martin J Dougherty

The armoured knight was but one part of the medieval fighting machine, albeit an important one. Weapons and Fighting Techniques of the Medieval Warrior examines the various arms that fought on a medieval battlefield, from the knight to the archer, crossbowman, man-at-arms, artilleryman, siege engineer, arquebusier and even the lowly peasant. From the clash at Hastings to the battle of Pavia, the book shows how the weapons and fighting techniques of each part of a medieval army developed over the centuries. With detailed colour illustrations and fact-filled accompanying text, the book is the essential guide for any enthusiast for the period.

An excellent read for all Medieval enthusiasts* Skirmish Magzine *
