Many of the woodcuts found in this edition are not available in other sources, including the German Single-leaf Woodcuts 1500-1550, and I am excited to put a copy of these woodcuts into your hands. Kriegsvolker contains three distinct books, each containing 50 woodcuts: Part I - Deutsche Kriegsleute von Nicolaus Meldemann und Hans Guldenmundt, 1530 Deutsche Kriegsleute was published by Nicolaus Meldemann and Hans Guldenmundt between 1520 and 1530 in Nuremberg. However, based on the clothing styles, the date is closer to 1530, after the Italian Wars and the Turkish siege of Vienna in 1529. Part I - Landsknecht von David de Necker, 1560's While this book of 50 woodcuts was published in the 1560's by David de Necker (or Negkar), the woodcuts actually date from 1520-30. They were cut by his father, Jost de Negker from the artist's drawings. Part I Kreigsbuch des Grafen Reinhart zu Solms, 1559 Reinhart Graf zu Solms, 1491-1562, was a military theorist and Imperial field marshal during the Schmalkaldic War of 1546-47. Starting in the 1530's, he published several books on military theory, tactics and fortification design. These 50 woodcuts come from his Kreigsbuch, or War Book, published in 1559. The woodcuts are in two sections: I.1-I.23 are depictions of Landsknecht during the early part of Graf Reinhard's career as a knight. I.24-I.50 depict the soldiers and officers of the Imperial forces which fought in the Schmalkaldic War.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51004884680977,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51004887466257,"sku":"NIN9780615919942","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0615919944.jpg?v=1750815888"},{"product_id":"landsknechts-on-campaign-book-marion-mcnealy-9780998597744","title":"Landsknechts on Campaign","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe wars of the 16th century were different from the isolated conflicts of the 15th century, spanning the continent and engaging many different parties at the same time. Emperors Maximilian I and Charles V were challenged on many fronts, externally by the Swiss, French, and Ottoman Turks, along with internal conflicts between the German princes and their people. It was a time of uprisings and invasions, of broken treaties and of instability, religious reformation and rebellions. Some of these conflicts were recorded in woodcut form, and published shortly after they happened. These woodcuts show the Landsknecht and their opponents in action, instead the more commonly seen individual depictions. The book contains scenes from the battles and sieges depicted in the German single sheet woodcuts: Pavia, Vienna, Budapest, and M nster. these along with many others, are all presented as a whole, then each individual plate, and pages of details, magnified for better viewing. There is also a brief description of the battle, and an explanation of the scenes in the woodcuts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51011886219537,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51011890118929,"sku":"NIN9780998597744","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0998597740.jpg?v=1750981675"},{"product_id":"flags-of-the-holy-roman-empire-1545-book-marion-mcnealy-9780998597775","title":"Flags of the Holy Roman Empire 1545","description":"Heraldry was an important part of everyday life in early modern 16th century Germany. It defined in easily identifiable pictures who and what belonged to whom. It was used by towns and families alike to mark property, identify members of the family and staff, and served as a rallying point for patriotic identity. However, it was not always easy for the ordinary person to keep track of which flag belonged to which town or family. During this era, many heraldry books and resources were created and published to assist in identification, such as this guide to the heraldic flags of the Holy Roman Empire. Published originally in 1545, this guide provides the modern reader with an amazing wealth of 143 full color woodcuts depicting the flags, Landsknecht military clothing and amour of the time. Amazingly, the woodcuts were painted very close to the publication date, resulting in a fantastic reference source for the wide range of colors and styles in male military clothing fashions for the 1540s. It's a must have reference book for anyone interested in mid-16th century German clothing, armor or heraldry.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51011893199121,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51011896541457,"sku":"NIN9780998597775","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B0CJ461K1T.jpg?v=1750749118"},{"product_id":"german-modelbucher-1524-1556-book-marion-mcnealy-9780998597720","title":"German Modelbucher 1524 - 1556","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51011930784017,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51011933569297,"sku":"NIN9780998597720","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0998597724.jpg?v=1750981674"},{"product_id":"landsknect-coloring-book-book-marion-mcnealy-9780998597706","title":"Landsknect Coloring Book","description":"40 unique coloring pages of woodcuts from the 16th century depicting Landsknecht soldiers and camp followers.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52858425016593,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52858425278737,"sku":"NIN9780998597706","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780998597706.jpg?v=1765118359"},{"product_id":"town-and-country-1517-1550-book-marion-mcnealy-9780998597768","title":"Town and Country 1517 - 1550","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53518393409809,"sku":"NIN9780998597768","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780998597768.jpg?v=1778337591"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-marion-mcnealy.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
